• NEW: upload of installation structures and download of measured values
• NEW: integrated real-time clock (measured value with date/ time)
• NEW: unambiguous "PASS" / "FAIL" indication by means of green / red LED on the tester and on the switchable "Commander" probe tip
• NEW: "Commander" probe tip with "TEST" and "MEM" key as well as bright LED measuring point illumination
• all measuring functions can be selected directly by means of a rotary switch
• memory of measured values for 1800 measurements
• graphic display with background lighting, help function with connecting diagram
• power supply by means of six NiMH storage batteries (AA)
• device with integrated storage battery charging function

Measuring functions:

• low-impedance resistance of protective conductor and equipotential bonding conductor connections (testing current: 200 mA with polarity reversal)
• insulating resistance with testing voltages of 50 / 100 / 250 / 500 / 1000 V
• line impedance (L-N / L) with voltage drop and short-circuit current
• loop impedance (L-PE) without RCD tripping and short-circuit current
• testing of RCDs, standard and delayed (S), types AC, A, F, B, B+ with AUTO test, contact voltage, tripping time and tripping current (ramp test)
• TRUE RMS voltage, frequency and phase sequence test
• single-fault leakage current in IT networks

Measuring functions by means of optional accessories:

• earthing measurement by means of three-wire measuring method by means of earthing kit
• TRUE RMS current by means of current clamps BENNING CC 1 / BENNING CC 3
• luminous intensity by means of BENNING luxmeter type B

BENNING PC-Win IT 130 logging software:

• NEW: creation and transmission (upload) of installation structures to the BENNING IT 130 for efficient periodic testing
• download of measured values and logging by means of test reports and ZVEH test certificates

Industrial environments requires TRUE RMS measuring instruments!

Non-linear loads arising e.g. from motor drives with adjustable speed, frequency converters or mains supply units for office equipment and LED lamps generate a reactive power in the mains. As a result, multimeters and current clamps working with the so-called averaging measuring method ("RMS") will display the measured values with reduced accuracy.

In many cases and particularly in industrial environments, it is therefore absolutely necessary to use state-of-the-art "TRUE RMS" measuring instruments. The "TRUE RMS" measuring method indicates the actual effective value of an alternating current correctly – irrespective of whether the signal waveform of the current is sinusoidal or distorted.
