Kewtech Multifunction Tester & EV Tester - KT66DL and KEWEVSE

[@gino2465]

Really nice bit of kit.

[@scabthecat]

I thought the meter would have to find its own way out of the box.

Lol

Hey, can you update on battery life? I really like the look of this tester and thinking of buying one. I had some concerns over the battery life because of the nice LCD screen.

[@MorzakEV]

Yeah, with daily use the battery lasted about 4 months so I was well chuffed!!!!

[@MorzakEV]

I think if you were doing EICRs all day, this might be different, but I was really impressed.

Hello and great video. As I have just got purchased the tester(I have also the 65dl) with the EV unit...could you do a full ev test using the 66 and it's ev add on for us please...would be very nice. Just getting used to using my tester in normal environment and so far .it's very fast.

[@MorzakEV]

Great idea, i'll get that filmed at some point. Thanks for the idea!!!

Does anyone know if Kewtec have a form fill software? When you store the tests on the KT66DL can you transfer them automatically to a certificate or will I still need a separate certificate software? TIA

[@MorzakEV]

I don’t think it has any Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or hard wired connectivity which would be needed to transfer the results.

I have the KT65DL, is it worth me buying the 66 or can I just use mine with the EVSE adaptor and do same job? ta

[@MorzakEV]

It will just do the same job I think. I’m not sure of the specs on the 65 but it might be missing some ev specific tests such as the 6mA dc leakage (eg the specific Type A RCD tests, but these aren’t specifically required by the regs at the moment, and looking at how the regs are moving I don’t see this being an issue going forwards.

[@gbelectricks]

Is it possible to use other manufacturers evse adapters on different brands if mft?

[@MorzakEV]

Yes, absolutely. I have a Metrel I use with Megger, and then I use the Kewtech stuff interchangeably with these as well. The socket on the EVSE testers is just a 3 pin so this can be used with any MFT and it’s kettle lead.

[@TheCraig031272]

Can you tell me is your Megger a 1741+?

[@MorzakEV]

No, the megger is the 1741. The + hadn’t come out when I bought it (it was the latest model at the time! I’m old). That’s one of the reasons for buying the Kewtech so we can test type B and A RCDs and 6mA DC leakage, for fault finding etc.

[@creatrhub]

@@MorzakEV I’m pretty sure the megger can be sent in for free upgrade to the plus and they will calibrate it also
