Martindale Electric, a manufacturer of electrical test equipment, has introduced a new lamp socket adaptor kit designed to simplify electrical testing on lighting circuits and fittings.
The LAMPKIT20 allows electrical test equipment to be connected to lamp fittings without the need to hold test probes in place or disassemble the fitting housing.
The kit includes five lamp socket adaptors covering common fitting types including B22, B14, E27, E14, and GU10.
It also includes a two-wire test lead set with 4mm banana plugs, supplied in a protective carry case.
All adaptors are rated to EN61010-1 CAT II 300V.
Designed for ease of use
According to Martindale Electric, the adaptors are intended to provide a more secure connection to difficult-to-access lamp fittings compared to standard probes or crocodile clips.
The company says the kit is suitable for general measurement tasks and can also form part of a wider electrical installation testing kit.
Martindale Electric notes that the adaptors are designed specifically for connecting test equipment to standard light fittings and are not intended for connecting other equipment directly to the mains supply.
