Socket & See SOK36 Professional Socket Tester
Professional Socket Testing with Earth Loop, Polarity and RCD Testing
The Socket & See SOK36 Professional Socket Tester combines socket testing, earth loop testing, polarity checking and RCD testing into one easy-to-use instrument. Designed for professional electricians, the Socket & See SOK36 provides fast, reliable testing with clear LED and audible indications, making it ideal for electrical installation, inspection and maintenance work.
Unlike many standard socket testers, the Socket & See SOK36 Professional Socket Tester automatically performs a true earth loop impedance test without tripping RCDs. A built-in self-check is carried out before every test to confirm the tester is operating correctly, while automatic loop testing begins as soon as the tester is plugged into the socket with no buttons to press.
