What types of insulation tests can it perform?

The SMARTPAT offers 250V and 500V insulation test options, suitable for a wide range of appliances, including sensitive IT equipment.

Does it perform RCD tests?

Troubleshooting

Ensure the battery is fully charged. Connect the charger and verify the charging indicator is active. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
