PRODUCT FOCUS
Ideal Industries The new SureTest® installation tester from Ideal Industries Networks Division is easy to use, very compact and ergonomically designed. Through clever use of new, lighter components and materials, as well as fewer (four) batteries, the device weighs just 765g, around 50 per cent lighter than most competing testers on the market – a genuine advantage if an electrician is testing for long periods. Peter Halloway, channel manager at Ideal Industries Networks Division comments: “Most electricians don’t have enormous purchasing budgets and so ideally they want to buy one installation tester that provides all the functionality in one device, including non-trip loop testing and phase sequencing to comply with the latest 17th Edition wiring regulations. SureTest® gives them all this functionality in an easy-to-use, affordable package.” The SureTest® kit comes with a complete set of detachable test leads, a switched remote test probe, crocodile clips, traceable calibration certificates, hard copy user guide, and a padded carrying case that stores the tester and all its accessories safely inside. SureTest® comes with a two-year warranty, upgraded to three years if the user registers online. 01925 444446 www.idealindustries.co.uk
