its a check box its for the individuals piece of mind that their test kit is there or there abouts,both check box and multifunction will still require an acredited calibration for it to be offical on site.
Had one of these for years and every now and then it gets sent of for calibration. Our normal couple of NIC inspectors are fine with multiple MFTS checking the check box, we've had a couple of guys do inspections that have turned around and said every meter and check box should be calibrated annually which defeats the point of on going checks.
Only worth getting if you have bunch of MFT’s to calibrate yearly, if you only have the one MFT then you might as well just pay to have it calibrated. If you have a bunch of MFT’s, get a checkbox and have just that calibrated, you can then calibrate all the MFT’s in-house.
I have the same check box . The IET and The NICEIC to me if I check my MFT monthly and keep a whiten record dated for each month then I don’t have to send My MFT away for annual calibration unless I see any major deviation .
£140 for a box full of resistors. The RCD test with it's LEDs is the only "fancy" thing and that's easy to replicate. The CalCard is bad enough at twenty odd pounds for 10 resistors

A box of accurate resisters cost pea nuts xx
I wouldn't have the FC2000 bouncing around in the back of the van. I keep mine at home.
Is there a checker for the check box?
So how do you calibrate the calibrator? And make sure the calibrators calibrator is calibrated? 😂😂
Do you have to send the FC2000 calibrated? If you don't, how do you know that the testbox is accurate?
The checkbox has to be calibrated too.
Just bought the same check box mate
Ok so if it shows your meter is out, what do you do then? Buy a new one?
You send it off for repair
You do what you do when your MFT fails its annual test and you are left wondering how many jobs you signed off that shouldn't have been.
trust me your analysing it too much
@@greentoad6729 Try telling the NIC that.
Why isn’t Veto on Loadout anymore?
That test box appears to be identical to the socket n see test box. I have an Oz version of it .
Hello sir ,am Enoch from Ghana and using dilog 9110 mft can u help me with procedure to calibrate it .tnx
Good stuff Mikey
Does the check box need calibrated? And what calibrates the calibrator 😂 😂 obviously I’m joking, I don’t require an answer
We had a calibration box at the previous company I worked for we had to send it away once a year for calibration.
I think you need a non-RCD socket to plug it in, otherwise the RCD in the DB would trip on loop & RCD checks.
No it doesn’t trip the RCD in the consumer unit .
Great vide. Where can I get a kewtech MFT on discount?
£140 on Amazon
