Installation Instrument Check Point
The
Checkbox 16 is a convenient Installation Instrument Check Point. It is a versatile compact instrument which is designed to provide a convenient check point for installation test instruments including Earth Loop testers, Insulation Continuity Testers and RCCB testers. The
Checkbox 16 provides a convenient and simple method of confirming the functionality and accuracy of Installation tester readings as required for NICEIC inspections.
Unless a user has confidence in their instrumentation they are of little value and the results generated are of little use. Under laboratory conditions it is often possible to cross reference between instruments and confirm readings, however installation instruments are often used in the field and this option is rarely available.
The
Checkbox 16 is not designed to be the basis of a complete calibration system but it does offer precision test points for a wide variety of instruments and enables the user to confirm the accuracy of their instrumentation whenever required.
The NICEIC has introduced into its assessment procedure a check to ensure the functionality and/or accuracy of test instruments. If an Approved Contractor is unable to demonstrate that an effective control system is in place to ensure the accuracy of test instruments, the Inspecting engineer will record a non-compliance in the Assessment Report.
The
Checkbox 16 can be an important part of an effective control system as defined by the NICEIC.
The
Checkbox 16 checks all Seaward and most other manufacturer's Installation Test Instruments.
