thank you

Budget option, buy separate low ohms, and Insulation testers off ebay for £50 each or less, make up a variety of plug/socket connectors, and you are away for less than £150.

Otherwise, get the cheapest version off

When I was working for a large company, they had one of the Seaward ones, which was the bees knees then as it did everything which was required. It was a big bulky machine though, and definitely not for carrying any distance

mercially, and will test a very wide range of elecrical goods.

Might have to do that. Would need a big 2 way 2 pole switch or we'll spend whole days replugging things.

I'd make the testers, its easy enough, but not sure about the question of c alibration though.
