robin - this looks ideal for a household starter set - multimeter, voltage indicator and dedicated continuity tester, all in a handy case: http://www.amprobe.eu/de_DE/showproduct/115/Junior-Set/
PDF brochure: http://www.amprobe.eu/de_DE/downloadfile/115/beschreibung_1/
All in German, unfortunately, as is the blurb on each product:
Multimeter: http://www.amprobe.eu/de_DE/showproductdata/487/Hexagon_55/
Voltage indicator: http://www.amprobe.eu/de_DE/showproduct/116/2000_α_(alpha)/
Continuity tester: http://www.amprobe.eu/de_DE/showproduct/481/TESTFIX/
but it is sold in the UK - the company is now owned by Fluke, and I guess they haven't got all the websites sorted out yet - contact them (http://www.fluke.co.uk) for info on where to buy.
Right now the English specs are still lurking on the Internet Time Machine from when Beha was an independent company:

Also see another discussion here: http://www.diynot.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=26282 It's a few years old, so specific model number advice may be obsolete (and prices will be higher), but the generic advice is still sound.
