Megger MFT1721 Multifunction Tester
Description
The NEW Megger MFT1721 17th Edition Tester is a direct replacement for Megger’s previous mid-range model, the MFT1720.
The MFT1721 has ease of use and functionality at its heart, offering CAT IV, 3 and 2-wire non trip loop testing with resistance and fault current display, frequency measurement and the largest, brightest and clearest display on the market. The Megger MFT range also features ‘LOCK’ and ‘TEST’ buttons on either side of the instrument, ideal for both left and right handed users making them one of the most accessible 17th Edition Tester’s available.
The MFT1721 also adds the ability to test Type B RCD’s, perfect for solar PV installations and vehicle charging points, a brilliant futureproofing feature. Also added is a 100V insulation range and 15mA continuity test ideal for use on inductive loads or simply to save power.
Handy features such as auto RCD testing and TRMS voltage measurement are a staple of the MFT1721, saving you not only time but also providing you with more reliable results. Another standard feature across the Megger MFT is the Z max function, ensuring testing final ring circuits is quick and easy. A 1kV insulation test range has also been added.
Every Megger Multifunction Tester is built to last, it won’t go bang when dropped, bounced, left out in the rain, connected across phases or even locked on and connected to a live circuit! This tough reputation is topped off with a 3 year warranty for complete peace of mind.
What Tests Can I Carry Out With The MFT1721?
- Loop – 2 and 3 wire non trip loop impedance testing. Fast 2 wire high current loop test for unprotected circuits. Line to line tests suitable for testing three phase installations
- Continuity – 200mA auto start continuity test suitable for R1+R2 and R2 testing, as well as 15mA test feature
- RCD – Full range of RCD tests from 10mA to 500mA. Auto RCD and ramp test. Variable as well as selective RCD testing and Type B RCD testing. Also suitable for 3 Phase RCD’s
- Insulation resistance – 100V, 250V, 500V and 1000V tests complete with buzzer threshold

Great tester Review by James B
Quality Price Value Used Megger for many years as they are top quality and always reliable. Bought as an update to my 1710 which I have passed on as still going strong. Item was in stock and supplied with a Megger calibration certificate so go it next day. (Posted on 16/04/2019)

Quality & Reliability Review by Sparky2
Value Quality Price Quality and Reliability at an acceptable price. I have mates who have tried Dilog, Kewtech and the likes which may seem cheaper initially but my last Megger tester lasted 6 years without problem. How many of the other brands can claim that type of reliability? (Posted on 14/11/2016)

Great tester Review by Mr Safety
Price Value Quality This is my second 17th edition tester and this is a delight to use compared to the Dilog tester I had before. Yes its expensive compared to that unit (Nearly double the price). But this performs so much better. Everything about it is quality. From the construction, clarity of the display, feel of the rotary dial to the test leads. Other reviews I have read always seem to rate Megger equipment highly and I can see why. In my opinion so far its more than worth the money. Ultimately you get what you pay for!

Megger Review by Smithy7
Value Quality Price I previously had the 1720, however after an unexpected sharp downpour it was left beyond economical repair (got to love the British weather!) I had used my old tester for over 5 years so was expecting and expensive service/repair bill soon anyway, so buying a new tester wasn't too much of a gripe!
Anyway, I decided to stick with Megger, no problems in the past and the interface on the new series is almost identical to that of the old series so no need to learn it all over again. However there are a few (positive difference) The 1721 now has the ability to carry out an insulation test at 100V which is required for testing static flooring, a big bonus. Also, type B RCD testing, granted I haven't come across them too often before, but has now opened a few more doors. These are the biggest advantages for me, there are a couple of other additions too including TRMS voltage measurement.
Having used both the 1720 and 1721, considering the small price difference it makes the 1721 a bargain! (Posted on 06/06/2016)

Question:
What is an example of a type B RCD?
Answers:
-
Posted by Ben Masters on Tuesday, 30 April 2019A few examples of a type B RCD are solar panels, wind generators and electrical vehicle charging points.
Question:
Does a clamp come with it?
Answers:
-
Posted by Ben Masters on Wednesday, 17 April 2019No, neither the current clamp or the voltage clamp are included with the MFT1721. They can be purchased separately, should you require them.
