Accurate Insulation Resistance Testing with the Megger MIT400 Series

Megger MIT410 Industrial Insulation TesterMegger’s MIT400 series testers are designed for electrical testing on power distribution facilities, commercial, domestic and telecommunication installations. These testers offer a wide range of functions and simple operation. They have selectable voltage outputs and dual digital/analog displays. Here is a comparison of the MIT400 series testers to help you decide which tester meets your needs.

Megger MIT400-EN Insulation Resistance and Continuity Tester

The MIT 400-EN has a maximum output test voltage of 1000 volts which makes it suitable for most commercial and residential testing applications. It can measure resistance up to 20 GΩ and has a live wire warning feature that alerts the user if the test sample has current flowing. This helps protect the user from injury and the tester from damage.

Product Features

  • Selectable output voltage of 250, 500 and 1000 Volts
  • Can measure resistance up to 20 GΩ
  • Displays INS test voltage
  • Continuity testing function from 0.01 to 100 Ω
  • Variable current limit
  • Live circuit warning feature at 50 Volts
  • Integrated voltmeter
  • Can measure TRMS 
  • Backlight
  • Test button with lock button
  • Automatic shut off function
  • Battery powered operation
