Socket & See PDL PRO High Resolution Loop Tester
Professional No Trip and High Resolution Earth Loop Testing
The Socket & See PDL PRO High Resolution Loop Tester is a professional Earth Loop Impedance Tester combining no-trip, high-current and high-resolution loop testing in one compact instrument. Designed for electrical installation and inspection work, the PDL PRO provides multiple L-E and L-N loop test options together with voltage, polarity, PFC and PSC measurements.
For RCD-protected circuits, the Socket & See PDL PRO provides a dedicated No Trip L-E loop test for measuring Zs. High-current modes can be used for Ze or Zs measurements on suitable circuits, with high-resolution L-E and L-N testing providing results to 1mΩ resolution.
A large backlit display, protective rubber boot and hands-free operation make this Socket & See Loop Tester particularly practical for everyday professional testing.

Why Choose the Socket & See PDL PRO?
One of the key advantages of the Socket & See PDL PRO Earth Loop Impedance Tester is its versatility. The No Trip L-E mode provides a three-wire Zs test for circuits protected by an RCD, while high-current testing provides options for measuring Ze or Zs where appropriate.
The hands-free function can be used with any loop measurement. Once connected, and after the tester has confirmed correct voltage and polarity, the selected loop test can be performed without having to press the TEST button.
The PDL PRO also uses a true impedance technique for accurate PFC measurement and calculates PSC between live conductors. A dedicated polarity touch pad provides an additional check for potentially dangerous polarity reversal, indicated by a flashing red LED and warning tone.
Applications:
- Earth loop impedance testing
- No-trip Zs testing on RCD-protected circuits
- High-current Ze and Zs testing
- High-resolution L-E and L-N loop testing
- PFC and PSC measurements
- Electrical installation testing
- Electrical inspection and maintenance
- Polarity checking
