MT-1/NT4 Portable Single-Phase Watthour Meter Tester

Overview

Picture of the MT-1/NT4The fourth generation of our very popular MT‑1/NT introduced more than 10 years ago!

Probewell now offers the most advanced portable single-phase watthour meter tester, the MT‑1/NT4. Using the technology developed for our 3‑phase tester, the weight of the MT‑1/NT4 is only 5.3 lbs, making it the smallest portable watthour single-phase meter tester available today!

All common residential watthour meters can be accurately tested on site by meter shop employees. Customer complaints and periodic sampling can be done within a few minutes! The MT‑1/NT4 is also very popular with Customer Service people. They can check the meter in one single visit and in front of the customer. Customer satisfaction is instantaneous.

The MT‑1/NT4 can test all common residential watthour meter forms 1S, 2S, 3S, 4S and 12S. The three loads HL, PF and LL are set automatically according to the TA of the meter being tested. Any non standard current can be also programmed by the user for special needs. With the commercial 12S meter, the MT‑1/NT4 can test two phases simultaneously or separately. The meter under test is entirely controlled by the test socket. No setup wiring is needed.

The MT-1/NT4 has also reverse power flow testing capability for solid-state meters.
