The 1650 Series testers verify the safety of electrical
installations in domestic, commercial and industrial
applications. They can ensure that fixed wiring is safe and
correctly installed to meet the requirements of IEC 60364,
HD 384 and all relevant local standards.

TP165X
Slim probe with test button. Keeps your
eyes on the panel while probing hard to
reach points. This remote probe is powered
by the tester so always operable (does not
require additonal batteries)

1654B

The complete tester for advanced users

This is the instrument that has it all, in a word: its complete. From all the test functions you need to in-built memory for
documenting results. This makes it the complete solution for professionals, especially contractors, everyone who would want
to have the best tool available and always understand (or know) how to use.

1652C
The ideal tester for
professional trouble-shooters
This is the instrument that is indeed ideal for professional users due to its
additional functionality. It is also ideal since even though it has high-end
features, it is still easy to use even after longer periods of non-use;
because operating it is intuitive and not forgotten easily.
