MARTINDALE RC2000 RCD Tester

The Martindale RC2000 RCD Tester is ideally suited for the testing of Residual Current Protection Devices, in compliance with the17th Edition of the IEE Wiring Regulations.

The RC2000 RCD tester is designed to test the most common RCDs in use,with a selector switch providing Fast, I and ½ Trip current settings. The Fast setting provides 150mA trip current for RCDs not exceeding 30mA. The I setting provides full rated trip current, which should cause the RCD under test to trip.The Martindale RC2000 also has a ½ setting that provides half the rated trip current whereby the RCD should not trip. This tester has a 6mA setting, widening the range of RCDs it can test.

Other features of The RC2000 tester include a polarity switch with 0° and 180°settings which permits a test cycle to commence with a positive or negative going wave form from the zero crossover point. The facility to establish whether the system under test is correctly wired is provided by means of neon lamps and monitoring of the voltage present on the earth terminal.
