Description
SONEL Multi-function Meter MPI-530-IT
MPI-530-IT multi-function meter is an instrument for electric shock protection measurements including the option of various methods for measuring earthing and earthing resistance. Additionally the multi-function meter enables its user to analyse power supply parameters, records and displays them on its screen.
Sonel MPI-530-IT allows testing of residual current devices (RCD), types AC, A, F and B also in IT network.
The multi-function meter automatically measures the insulation resistance in a socket and in 3 -, 4 – and 5-wire cables when used with AutoISO-1000C adapter. Measurement results may be continuously verified, depending on user’s demand or according to binding regulations. Memory of the instrument may store tens of thousands of measurements allowing users to store them in a structure of a protocol and describe individual measurement points.
MPI-530-IT multi-function meter is designed for performing check tests of protection against electric shock in AC mains systems. The multi-function meter is used for making measurements and providing results to determine safety of electrical installations.
MPI-530-IT multi-function meter is the equipment to perform complete test and verify on electrical installations according to the most common safety standards (IEC 61557, VDE 0100, BS7671).
