Seaward PowerPlus 1557 Multifunction Tester

The Seaward Power Plus 1557 is a comprehensive 17th edition tester. The tester can carry out:  Earth continuity, Insulation Resistance (100V, 250V, 500V, 1000V), Line impedance, High current and non-tripping Earth Loop, RCD Auto sequence, RCD trip time, RCD trip current (ramp test), Voltage, Frequency and Phase rotation measurement.
This multifunction tester with the optional PowerPlus PC software, that will make inspections and testing easier and quicker than ever before. The PowerPlus 1557 allows the user to record test and inspection results and information directly onto the in built 17th edition certificates as you are performing the tests. The built-in certificates include Electrical Installation Certificate, Periodic Inspection Report and Minor Works Certificate for domestic and commercial sites. The Seaward PowerPlus 1557 is an intelligent machine, the on-board data validation checks for blanks fields or invalid measurements ensuring that only the correct information goes into the right certificate field.  All the test and inspection data can be downloaded into the optional PowerPlus PC Software, where results are imported directly into the appropriate fields. 17th edition certificates can then be printed out on preprinted ECA, NAPIT, NICEIC, IEE stationary.

This revolutionary method of installation testing means faster and more efficient testing, making you more money. Forget pen and paper or separate PDA's. Combine it all into one small and battery powered installation tester.
