Seaward Electronic has developed a new electrical equipment safety tester to check that workplace appliances and products do not pose a hazard to the user.

The new PrimeTest 100 is a new handheld tester that is designed for the fast and effective safety checking of Class I and Class II electrical equipment used in the workplace.

As well as power tools, kitchen equipment and other electrical appliances, the PrimeTest can also be used to verify the safety of IT and business equipment.

The unit has been designed for electrical servicing and safety testing applications and also enables tests to be carried out on IEC leads, extension leads and the power sockets that electrical equipment might be connected to.

The fundamental portable appliance testing capabilities of the new instrument includes earth continuity, insulation resistance and Class I/Class II leakage.

Tests are carried out against preset pass/fail limits and a large LCD gives a clear pass or fail indication and can help companies comply with Electricity At Work Regulations.

In addition, the PrimeTest 100 carries out IEC lead polarity tests and checks the socket is wired correctly.

Universal graphics on the case of the instrument guide the user through the tests available and a single pushbutton operation establishes the appropriate sequences for the selected tests.

The robust, ergonomically designed unit incorporates an integral rubber bumper for rugged use in the field.

The new PrimeTest 100 is supplied complete with lead set, IEC lead, instruction manual and carry case with shoulder strap and forms part of a comprehensive range of portable appliance test instruments and electrical safety testers manufactured by Seaward.
