Megger PVK330 Solar PV Test Kit
Bring solar irradiance and electrical measurements together with the Megger PVK330 Solar PV Test Kit. Combining the PVM210 irradiance meter, DCM340 AC/DC clamp meter and specialist solar leads, this kit supports photovoltaic installation, commissioning and testing.
Measure sunlight at the panel location and check current in individual strings without disconnecting their cables. The DCM340 also provides voltage, resistance and frequency functions for other electrical checks.
The PVK330 supplements your existing test equipment, including instruments such as the Megger MFT1730 and MFT1835. A zipped pouch keeps the kit together between jobs.

Why choose the Megger PVK330?
✓ Understand the sunlight available
The PVM210 measures solar irradiance: the sunlight reaching a surface, expressed in W/m². Use it to assess potential panel positions and provide irradiance readings alongside electrical measurements.
Its compact design avoids the need to handle a separate sensor. A standard camera thread also allows mounting when you need to keep the meter in position.
✓ Check string current without disconnecting cables
The DCM340 lets you measure current in individual strings on a solar array without opening the circuit. Its AC and DC capability supports checks across different parts of an installation.
The clamp accommodates conductors up to 35mm in diameter. Data hold, min/max hold and peak hold provide options for reviewing readings during electrical checks.
✓ Connect to different solar panels
The supplied 1.3m leads connect MC4 solar connectors to standard 4mm plugs. The additional 0.2m MC3-to-MC4 adaptors support panels with MC3 connections.
Keep the meter‘s measurement limits and the leads’ ratings in mind when selecting your test arrangement.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: Does the PVM210 measure panel current?
A. No. It measures solar irradiance. The DCM340 clamp meter provides the kit’s current measurements.
Q2: Can I use the supplied leads for 600A measurements?
A. No. The specialist PV leads are rated at 19A. The DCM340 measures current through its clamp, with a maximum range of 600A.
Q3: Do the 1000V leads make this a 1000V voltage-testing kit?
A. No. The DCM340 voltage measurement limit remains 600V AC/DC. Higher-rated leads do not increase the meter’s limit.
Q4: Is a multifunction installation tester included?
A. No. The PVK330 provides additional instruments and leads to accompany your usual electrical test equipment.
Q5: Does the calibration certificate cover both meters?
A. No. The included calibration certificate covers the PVM210 irradiance meter only.
