Greetings to all. I would like to hear your recommendations for test equipment for performing Touch/Leakage Current. If it is ok to say, we currently have an ED&D LT-952 with the 30A option and it has been great. However, we would like to get a second tester that has a LAN interface so we can automate the testing and data collection.
We like the Meter Reference feature so the measurement is not only referenced to ground, but also to Line 1 or Line 2. We also like the 30 amp ability since we do test products that are rated between 20A and 30A. Even higher current rating would be nice. I would love to hear your recommendations for a good Leakage Current Tester. If it is not ok to post here, please send it directly to me. Validation and Calibration: On another related topic, how do you all Validate your Leakage Current Tester? Does anyone self calibrate their own Tester? How hard can this be? The company we use for calibration says they cannot calibrate it so they send it to another company, resulting in my tester being gone for a long period of time. So I am trying to find an acceptable solution. I also have the Human Body Model circuit as a separate box that I connect to a calibrated DMM to make measurements. This box is easy to validate just with a meter. Our NRTL Inspector says we can just measure the resistance and capacitance of the Box ourselves and do not have to send it out for calibration (that is what they do). So can I use this Box to compare the results I get with my ED&D Leakage Current Tester and call it good? Thank you very much.
