Operation in 3 simple steps
Set the rotary dial to your testing range.
Connect the instrument to the installation under test.
Press the test button.
Hands free testing
By remote probe or using the Lockdown function of the test button.
Large LCD
All the test data is shown in one large colored screen.
Anti-Trip Technology (with 2 & 3 wire)
For no trip LOOP L-PE testing on all RCDs.
With 3wire (L, N, PE), to get the best accuracy readings.
With 2 wire only, very useful in case of no Neutral (i.e. 3-phase motor lines).
HELP Key
HELP function will show instrument according to how to connect the the function selected.
0.001 resolution
Thanks to high test current of 25A, the Loop Impedance Phase to Earth is measured with high resolution of 0.001 ohm. This can be useful when testing in the main switchboard closer to the transformer.
Wide variety of RCDs can be tested
Type AC, A, F, B (General & Selective) EV and Variable
RCDs. Single and Auto test, Ramp test and Contact voltage.
PAT test
PAT test (PAT = Portable Appliance Tester) It is possible to check the insulation resistance and earth bond continuity of portable appliances for class I and II.
Zs/Ra Limit
The verification of safety requirement on an electrical installation is simplified by using Zs/Ra Limit function.
This function will automatically check if the measured loop impedance for TN (or earth loop for TT) is low enough to trip (disconnect) the MCB / Fuse / RCD giving the result of PASS(v) or FAIL (x) on the display.
SPD test
SPD (Surge Protection Device) which contains varistor can be tested measuring the tripping voltage without damage it. 
Connectivity
KEW 6516 can download the test data by connecting the USB adapter (Model 8212-USB) and then print complete Test Reports by a PC.
While KEW 6516BT can transfer the test datatoa Tablet or Smartphone via Bluetooth. Such test data can be saved, shared and sent by email. The USB adapter can also be ordered as an option. 
KEW 6516 and KEW 6516BT come complete with everything you need for testing an electrical installation
