Socket & See SP400 Professional Proving Unit

Professional Proving for Voltage Indicators, Multimeters and Non-Contact Voltage Detectors

The Socket & See SP400 Proving Unit provides a secure and dependable way to verify the correct operation of multimeters and two-pole voltage indicators before and after use. Developed in the UK, the SP400 combines an intelligent voltage ramp with a 50–690V output, providing electricians with a compact and practical proving solution for everyday electrical testing.

Unlike a standard proving unit, the Socket & See SP400 also features a dedicated non-contact voltage detector test pad, allowing users to check a non-contact voltage detector before and after use when required.

With bright LED indication, a rugged enclosure and a lightweight, compact design, this Socket and See Proving Unit is designed to be easy to carry and straightforward to use on site.

  • Test voltage generated at 50Hz
  • Bright LEDs provide clear indication
  • Flashing blue LED gives low-battery indication
  • User-replaceable batteries
  • Rugged enclosure
  • Lightweight and compact design
  • Powered by 6 × AA alkaline batteries
  • Approximately 10 hours average battery life
  • BS EN 61010-1:2010 safety compliance

 

Why Choose the Socket & See SP400?

The Socket and See SP400 is designed to help users confirm that their voltage testing equipment is operating correctly before and after use. The intelligent voltage ramp allows multimeters and two-pole voltage indicators to be checked across the unit‘s 50–690V output range.

A major advantage of the Socket & See SP400 Proving Unit is its additional non-contact voltage detector test feature. The built-in test pad means a suitable non-contact voltage detector can also be checked using the same proving unit, providing extra versatility within a single compact instrument.

Battery management is straightforward too. A flashing blue LED clearly indicates a low-battery condition, and the six AA alkaline batteries can be conveniently replaced by the user.

 

Applications:

  • Proving two-pole voltage indicators
  • Checking multimeters before and after use
  • Checking non-contact voltage detectors
  • Electrical testing
  • Electrical installation work
  • Electrical inspection and maintenance
  • Routine verification of voltage testing equipment
