KT64DL A Game Changer for Electrical Testing

In an ever-evolving industry where precision, safety, and efficiency are paramount, Kewtech has again raised the bar by releasing the KT64DL Multifunction Tester. As professionals in the electrical field continuously look for tools that enhance accuracy and streamline workflows, this latest addition to the Kewtech family is poised to make a significant impact.

 

A Powerful Tool for Modern Electricians

The Kewtech KT64DL multifunction tester is designed with both the seasoned professional and the novice in mind, offering a robust, dependable, and versatile testing solution. Based on the extremely popular KT63DL, this new MFT offers all your essential electrical tests including continuity, insulation resistance, loop impedance, and PSC/PFC as well as AC and A type RCD testing. In addition, the KT64DL benefits from the advanced and modern features of EV charge point testing and the testing of evermore common SPDs.

To keep the unit so compact the KT64DL uses the same layout as its older sister, the KT63DL, with dedicated live and dead circuits with a simple slider on the rear of the instrument. This integrated functionality simplifies the testing process and ensures electricians can complete their tasks with greater speed and precision.

 

EV Testing

The KT64DL offers a cost-effective solution to the rapidly growing EV testing and installation market from one of the UK’s leading brands of test equipment.

The addition of a 6mA DC test at 0 & 180 provides an effective means for electricians to safely verify the integrity of EV charging points at test or installation. This test is particularly useful for checking insulation resistance, verifying correct wiring, and ensuring that protective earth connections function as intended. It helps identify potential faults in the system, preventing future electrical hazards and ensuring compliance with safety standards, which ultimately protects both installers and end-users.

Used with either the KEWEVSE or KEWEVA adapters, Kewtech provides a complete solution for the EV installer.

 

SPD Testing

Though not a mandatory test today, Kewtech has begun to introduce a Surge Protection Device test to their newest MFTs which includes both an AC and DC breakdown voltage display. This ensures that an installed SPD is still working as expected to effectively protect against potential surges and spikes.

Over time, SPDs can degrade due to repeated surges or environmental factors so testing can help identify worn-out or failed devices before they compromise the protection of the system and provide you with peace of mind.

New Design Test Leads

Kewtech’s new design, ultra slim test probe tips provide an easy solution to the testing of increasingly common push-fit connector blocks. What’s more the probe tips have been finished with gold plating to provide Kewtech test leads with an even greater level of accuracy and consistency over other standard test leads on the market.

 

Why the KT64DL Stands Out

One of the standout features of the KT64DL is its user-friendly interface. The tester boasts a large, backlit display, which makes reading test results clear and straightforward, even in low-light conditions. This diligence ensures that electricians can focus on the task at hand, rather than struggling with an unclear feature selection or hard-to-read display.

Additionally, the KT64DL is finished with the ever-popular and unique Kewtech feature of a magnetic rear case which attaches to metal surfaces and distribution boards allowing the user two hands free to conduct the testing.

Kewtech also incorporated features that enhance the tester’s durability and portability. Weighing in at just under 1.2 kg, the KT64DL is compact and easy to carry around, yet tough enough to withstand the wear and tear of daily use in demanding environments being IP54 rated. The device is supplied in a padded case, and padded neck strap, and includes the latest G7 Precision test leads and slimmer probes for access into the WAGO style connectors.

The Verdict

With a range of useful features designed to meet the modern demands of electrical professionals, it promises to simplify testing procedures and help electricians work more efficiently. Whether you are working on a small residential project or a large-scale commercial installation, the KT64DL is a tool that will help you complete the job with confidence and ease.

For professionals who demand the best from their tools, the Kewtech KT64DL Multifunction Tester is undoubtedly a notable change. Its combination of innovative technology and practical design ensures it will become an indispensable part of any electrical toolkit.
