    17th edition Megger DVD

    Yep the quality was absolutely top notch :D , the only thing that gave it away as a pirate copy was the printing of the case and the label on the disk. All the menu's etc work and the sound and audio are quality.....

    Metrel 61577 MFT - Any good ??

    I've been offered a good deal on a Metrel 61577 tester, but I've never come across one before. I've seen guys using flukes and meggers etc but never even heard of Metrel are they any good ??? I know it's probably not in the same league as the big boys but any good as a first multifunction...

    Test Schedules - What do you do ?

    Thanks for the replies, I had been putting a tick in the ring column after doing all the tests. However my lecturer this year told me that I was wrong and the maximum value of R1+RN should be recorded in the ring column (which I wasn't sure about, hence my question). And having used the...
