The PV150 Solarlink test kit includes the all-in-one PV150 installation tester - it makes proving the electrical integrity and performance of a PV system faster, safer and easier than ever before. With simple direct connections to PV systems, the PV150 performs open circuit voltage, short circuit current and insulation resistance tests at the press of a button, in less than 30 seconds.

The Solarlink test kit also includes the Solar Survey multifunction irradiance meter, enabling irradiance and temperature measurement to be received and recorded wirelessly into the PV150 solar tester at the same time as electrical tests are conducted -- a requirement of international standards and best practice, including IEC 62446, BS EN 62446 and EN 62446.
