LEM HEME's Saturn 100 plus instruments provides the electrical contractor with a simple, compact and convenient instrument capable of measuring all the parameters defined in BS 7671 (16th Edition). The 100 plus meets all an installer's testing needs for RCDs, loop impedance, insulation resistance, continuity, low resistance, earthing and phase rotation.

Many features:

This versatile test instrument incorporates patented non-trip RCD testing and 5x tripping current test with display of tripping current and time. All this is available for just over £500, making the Saturn 100 plus 'an unequalled choice', says the company.

The rotary selector makes measurement selection simple, the results of which are shown in bold digits on a large, easy to read, display. Any result can be displayed for as long as desired.

As with most LEM HEME instruments, the 100 plus has overload protection in all functions and advanced fuse protection (AFP) in low resistance mode to prevent accidental damage to the instrument or fuse as result of incorrect connection. The robust construction with a tough protective rubber cover and a large rotary switch make the instrument the sensible choice for on-site testing. The large LCD display clearly shows measurement results and instrument settings.

Accessories:

The Saturn 100 plus comes complete with batteries, test prods, clips and mains plug adaptor for direct testing. The instrument uses six standard AA cells, which have enough power for around 3500 measurements.
