Cliff Electronics is a leading manufacturer of electrical Test Leadsets and has announced the introduction of its new UK Designed and Manufactured Earth Testing Cable Reels. These long-life, high-reliability cable test reels are intended for professional R2 and earth bond continuity testing and are compatible with a very wide variety of test meter brands.
The new Test Lead can be used as an extension lead with all types of insulation and multifunction testers fitted with 4mm terminations and is an essential accessory, ideal for testing ceiling roses, light fittings and distant circuits. The convenient hand wheel arrangement makes rolling up the cable quick and easy and the extension lead is terminated with a shielded 4mm plug and push-on crocodile clip meeting the requirements of IEC 61101, 10A 1,000V CAT II, 600V CAT III.
Manufactured by Cliff in their UK factory the reels are available with standard lengths of 30m and 50m of double insulated cable which provides visual indication of damage by revealing the white inner sheath in the event of miss-use or cracking. Cables are available rated to 1KV (PVC), 5KV and 12KV (silicone) and may be supplied in black, red, green, blue, brown and yellow.
The rugged new proprietary cable reel housing provides OEMs with the ability to have their brand or logo inserted into the handle, subject to a minimum order quantity. The standard housing color is black with other colors available to special order.
