UNI-T UT-593 multifunctionele installatietester met RCD-, lus-, isolatie- en doorgangstest

The UNI-T UT-593 stands out as a comprehensive multifunction installation tester that consolidates essential electrical safety verifications into a single, portable instrument. Unlike basic socket testers or single-function meters, it performs insulation resistance, RCD trip time, loop impedance, continuity, voltage, frequency, and phase rotation tests—making it ideal for professional electricians certifying installations to IEC 61557 standards.

Highlights

• Insulation testing at 50V, 100V, 250V, 500V, and 1000V with resistance up to 1000 MΩ
• RCD testing for AC, A, and F types at 10mA to 1000mA, including ramp and trip time measurement
• Loop/line impedance from 0.01Ω to 2000Ω with prospective fault current up to 23kA
• Continuity testing with >200mA current for reliable low-resistance checks
• Phase rotation indication and AC voltage/frequency measurement
• CAT III 600V / CAT IV 300V safety rating for demanding environments
• Stores 1000 test results and connects to PC via USB for reporting

In daily use

On site, the UT-593 accelerates verification routines. The backlit LCD remains readable in dim distribution boards, while the rotary selector and dedicated buttons reduce menu diving. Its high-current continuity test ensures compliance with wiring regulations, and the RCD ramp test helps identify nuisance tripping. The internal memory and USB interface simplify documentation, replacing handwritten logs with digital records.
