What's in your bag / box?

[oracle]

The least I have ever seen is an ordinary continuity / insulation resistance tester and a roll each of pass / fail stickers and the guy did a damn good job.

What do you think we should carry and why ?

I don't have a bag.... I am bagless ...
I have pens and a mouse... ooooooh and a stapler...

Pot noodle, because I get hungry sometimes.

Oh yes, and a kettle.

So how do you carry all this?

I just carry gaffer tape, cable ties, a spade and some plastic sheeting in mine to deal with moaning customers who question the invoice amount!

Oracle, I assume you are asking the question ISITEE specific as it is in this sub forum.

Apart from the obvious things, this will vary depending on what industries you test within. For example, we do most of our ISITEE within the entertainment industry and have a large collection of different short jumpers and mounded adaptors for the various connectors and inlets that we see regularly, but you may never see if just doing offices.

An isolation transformer for testing of plugtop type RCDs is a useful addition for anyone doing ISITEE regularly.

Chloroform, gaffer tape and rope.

Hi Tony

Thank you for your responsible reply
I did start the thread seriously but it only drew lighthearted responses so I gave up.
Your work sounds extremely specialised ,so I imagine it's better paid than ordinary, so called PAT testing?

I was thinking of equipment testing kit and accessories, obviously some hand tools are required, but personally I carry a lot of adapters for testing commercial and industrial equipment and cables Picture attached is my adaptor box
