Seaward Primetest 350 Questions

[Gongalong]

Hi folks,

 

We have a Seaward Primetest 350 portable appliance tester.

 

We're having a couple of issues with it.

 

1. We have an Opticon Bluetooth scanner, but the barcode sheet to use it is missing. By chance does anyone have this?

 

2. There are over 20 automated tests, several of which are for IT equipment. What should we use?

 

Seaward support are incredibly unhelpful, and have no answer to any of this?

 

TIA

Question 2 is concerning as you should know what test to do if you are training and know what you are doing and how to recognise the types of appliance as the default Seaward tests are good. Have the people been trained on actually pat testing?

^this.

I'm asking on behalf of a colleague who has done some county training, but the course was basic and testing simple items, and the trainer was not familiar with this tester (which is more complex than most).

 

Anyway, we got an answer from someone else at the company that did the training. For reference it's just the first Class 1 and 2 tests, relevant to the class of the equipment (the tester also has an IT PE Touch test, among others).

 

Also it looks like we've found the barcodes at Opticon's site, having identified the exact scanner.

I've got the barcodes sheet in the office if you need it.

Thanks. We have it now from Seaward. It seems to connect to the Seaward, but isn't reading barcodes. We're persevering with Seaward support...
