Faster transformer testing with fewer connections.

The Megger MTOU3 is a three-phase winding resistance ohmmeter designed to improve safety, simplify setup and deliver accurate results with greater confidence.

With a single, one-time lead connection, technicians can perform:

- Vector confirmation
- Winding resistance testing
- Automatic demagnetisation

Dual winding excitation helps speed up primary and secondary measurements, while automatic vector confirmation checks the correct transformer vector before every test.

Less reconnecting. Fewer ladder climbs. More confidence in the result.

One device for faster, safer cable and phase identification.

The Megger DCI3 combines both functions in one rugged, portable unit, helping field teams reduce equipment, save time and work with greater confidence.

With three-phase cable identification, crews can save up to an hour per job, while its always-grounded phase ID design adds an important layer of operator safety.

It also delivers reliable identification across distances of up to 30 km, even in electrically noisy environments.

Ideal for utilities, renewables, rail and industrial networks.

Need a clearer picture of what’s happening with your power?

The Acksen Electrocorder EC-7VAR-RS logs three-phase voltage, current, power factor and energy usage, giving you the data you need to identify issues, understand consumption and make better-informed decisions.

Ideal for electrical contractors, facilities teams, utilities and maintenance engineers, it can help with:

• Energy usage monitoring
• Voltage and current investigations
• Solar PV and UPS sizing
• Standby generator sizing
• Identifying whether low voltage is linked to high site demand

With flexible Rogowski coils and simple software that turns recorded data into easy-to-read graphs, the EC-7VAR-RS makes detailed power monitoring straightforward.
