Martindale VIPD138 Voltage Indicator and Proving Unit Kit,Yellow,26.5 x 10 x 10 cm; 530 Grams

Product Information

A Voltage Indicator should always be tested against a live source or proving unit to confirm the long term reliability of results given whilst testing live circuits. Martindale are currently the market leaders in Voltage Detection and the latest update to the VIPD Kit continues their reputation for highly accurate test equipment. Ideal for proving indicators and measurement devices up to 690V AC or DC in commercial and industrial applications Proving Unit safely and simply proves the operation of voltage indicators and test lamps up to 690V

Compact and lightweight, the new proving devices can easily be carried around in an electricians’ tool kit so test instruments can be proved before and after working on any circuit as advocated by the Electrical Safety Council. The VI15000 has a 1000V CAT IV safety rating and LED indication for AC/DC voltages from 50V to 690V and above, ensuring compliance with health and safety recommendations for safe working in all BS EN61010 installation categories. It’s the simplest and most reliable way to ensure circuits have been de-energised and properly isolated prior to maintenance and modifications. The Martindale VIPD138-S Voltage Indicator & Proving Unit Kit is a safe isolation set consisting of a Martindale VI13800 Voltage Indicator, PD440S Proving Unit, and TC71 Combination Carry Case. Containing equipment required to follow safe isolation procedures, it is an essential safety aid for electricians, and service and maintenance technicians.Voltage indicators should prove the normal working voltage. The use of higher voltages than seen in the real world can be misleading. A safe isolation set including a Martindale VI13800 Voltage Indicator, PD440S Proving Unit, and TC71 Combination Carry Case

Ideal for proving indicators and measurement devices up to 230V AC or DC in domestic and commercial applications Based on the industry endorsed VI3800, the new CATIV design not only provides improved protection against voltage transients, but also includes a high wattage resistor that will limit the current in the event of damage to the cable in accordance with BS EN61243-3. The protection is built in where it’s needed, in the handheld probe assembly rather than just in the instrument providing superior protection for the user to other testers. The PD430 adds a lower voltage range of 50V. This is because 50V can be lethal so it is important for extra safety that you can prove your voltage indicator will illuminate at 50V, which is a requirement of IEC 61243. There is no specific requirement to replace the VI13700 products which are in use. NB Proper proving procedures should always be used with any voltage indicator.

The Martindale PD690S Proving Unit can be used to prove the functionality of the Martindale VT12 Two-Pole Voltage & Continuity Tester safely and simply. The Martindale PD690S Proving Unit delivers a test voltage of up to 690V AC/DC and a long battery life. It features a tough, overmoulded low-profile design with a low battery indicator.

Martindale PD690S Proving Unit Overview The Martindale VIPD138-S Voltage Indicator & Proving Unit Kit is a reliable, practical, and durable safe isolation set. Martindale VIPD138-S Voltage Indicator & Proving Unit Kit Key FeaturesBased on the industry endorsed VI-13800, the new CAT IV design not only provides improved protection against voltage transients, but also includes a high wattage resistor that will limit the current in the event of damage to the cable in accordance with BS EN61243-3. The protection is built in where it’s needed, in the handheld probe assembly rather than just in the instrument providing superior protection for the user to other testers. The Martindale PD440S is a direct replacement for the industry standard PD440. Its voltage output is matched to the VI13800, the MTL10 and MTL20 Drummond test lamps and all other 440V voltage indicators and testers. Proving Unit safely and simply proves the operation of voltage indicators and test lamps up to 440V The 440V industry-leading PD440S Proving Unit is suitable for verifying high and low impedance voltage testers; for maximum convenience, it can be used through the TC71 Carry Case. The Martindale VI13800 Voltage Indicator can identify voltages between 50V and 600V AC/DC; it includes dedicated LEDs for indicating the voltage range. The Martindale VI13800 Voltage Indicator also features a bright LED for polarity indication. Finally, it is GS38 and BS EN61243-3 compliant and features a heavy-duty, double-insulated cable with a contrasting inner core to reveal any damage. The Martindale VT12PD-S Voltage Tester & Proving Unit Kit can be used to maintain compliance with safe isolation and proving dead procedures. To this end it includes:

The large digit LCD display of the VT28 gives actual voltage readings in addition to the LED voltage ranges. The AC/DC voltage detection, continuity and phase rotation functions all have bright LED indication. Auto power-off ensures a long battery lifetime. As we know the proving units are portable making them easy to transport and use in many environments, however, there are many varieties of proving units to accommodate the vast voltage ranges of electrical equipment. For example, low voltage proving units such as the Martindale PD240 can test voltages up to 240V, great for residential appliances. If you need something capable of testing high voltage testers, then the Martindale PD690 kit is a great option by testing voltages from 12V to 700V and with a proving unit accompanied by a voltage tester in a neat carry pouch. Nothing is more dangerous than trusting a defective voltage indicator to test for a dead circuit. Safe electrical work requires the use of a voltage indicator that has been proved with a proving device before and after use.The new VI-15000 has a 1000V CATIV safety rating and LED indication for AC/DC voltages from 50V to 690V and above, ensuring compliance with health and safety recommendations for safe working in all BS EN61010 installation categories. It’s the simplest and most reliable way to ensure circuits have been de-energised and properly isolated prior to maintenance and modifications. In addition to all the benefits of the industry standard Martindale PD440 and PD690 proving units, the S models feature a tough overmoulded low profile case and come with an MG3 magnetic hanger (excluding kits). They are fast and easy to use, instantly supplying the test voltage for both high and low impedance voltage indicators, test lamps and meters.
