Kewtech Socket Tester - Loopcheck 107

Kewtech Loopcheck 107 Socket Tester

The Kewtech Loopcheck 107 Socket Tester is a highly advanced tool designed for electricians and DIY users who prioritize safety and accuracy in their electrical testing. While the electrical safety council recommends using advanced socket testers, the LOOPCHECK 107 takes safety to the next level, offering comprehensive testing features that go beyond standard models.

Key Features and Capabilities:

1. Standard Socket Test:

Like a typical socket tester, the LOOPCHECK 107 checks the wiring configuration at the socket to ensure proper connections. However, many testers fall short of identifying complex issues such as neutral/earth swaps. The LOOPCHECK 107 not only checks if the wiring is in the correct position but also adds an extra layer of verification.

2. Earth Loop Testing:

Beyond basic wiring checks, the LOOPCHECK 107 performs an earth loop test to assess the quality of the earth connection, which is critical for the safety of the electrical installation. Standard socket testers may fail to detect unsafe or poor-quality earth connections, but the LOOPCHECK 107 ensures that your earthing is up to par.

3. Mains Polarity Check:

A potentially dangerous scenario is the incorrect polarity of the mains supply, where a standard socket tester might not detect this issue due to the similarity in voltage between the plug pins. The LOOPCHECK 107, however, features a unique test pad that, when touched, can detect this dangerous polarity reversal, helping to prevent serious electrical hazards.

4. 30mA RCD Test:

For added safety, the LOOPCHECK 107 includes a 30mA RCD (Residual Current Device) test to ensure your RCDs are functioning correctly and within the required parameters. This is a critical feature for preventing electric shocks and enhancing overall safety.
