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 you can rely on
the Martindale to deliver fast and safe socket testing every time.
The CP501 Check Plug and
BZ101Buzz-It are 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.
Offering electricians and
maintenance personnel confidence and peace of mind, the Martindale CP501
classic check plug is a quick and easy way to ensure that 13A sockets are
correctly wired. Featuring 3 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 fail-safe 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. In addition, with the
audible indication, the BZ101 can also be used as a basic fuse finder. When the correct fuse is pulled, the buzzer
stops.
Cased in robust blue ABS
housing with a sculptured shape for easy removal, the CP501 and BZ101 are
instantly recognisable. They can accurately indicate up to 28 faults, the most
common of which can be interpreted from the quick key on the front of the
tester with further details clearly shown on a useful instruction card supplied
with all Martindale socket testers.
However, it’s important to
recognise that although socket testers can be used for detecting first line
fault conditions, they are not an alternative to full verification of wiring
installations. For full verification
it’s necessary to follow the inspection and testing procedures set out in BS
7671, using a full set of test instruments complying with the relevant parts of
BS EN 61557, typically with a multifunction electrical tester such as a
Martindale ET4000.
