SAFER SOCKET TESTING FROM MARTINDALE

19 March 2018

TO MANY, Martindale means socket testing, from the first ever ring main socket tester to today’s comprehensive range of residential and industrial check plugs.

The CP501 Check Plug and BZ101Buzz-It are one of the UK’s favourite socket testers designed for easy verification of wall socket wiring. Suitable for use as a first line indicator to identify potentially unsafe installations and wiring faults, socket testers offer a fast and effective solution when properly specified. Particularly useful as a service tool in identifying potentially unsafe conditions prior to carrying out work on existing installations or connecting new appliances, they can also be used to identify socket outlets which may require a more detailed inspection as part of periodic inspection and testing.

The Martindale CP501 classic check plug is described as a quick and easy way to ensure that 13A sockets are correctly wired. Featuring three bright long life LEDs, wiring faults are indicated by one of the LEDs failing to illuminate, with the pattern of lit LEDs indicating the type of fault detected. This system means that any LED not lit indicates a fault. The fault condition can be easily identified from the list of most common faults clearly displayed on the front of the label.

With the added benefit of an audible sounder to confirm that the wiring is correct, the BZ101 is the ideal choice for checking sockets that are not easily visible or in difficult to access locations.
