UNI-T

UNI T measurement ecosystem for commissioning, troubleshooting, and QA

UNI T is widely used by electrical contractors, MEP teams, and facility engineers because the instruments are consistent, durable, and easy to standardize across multi-site operations. Below is a buyer-centric guide: what to stock, how to specify, and how to run acceptance tests that pass audits.

UNI T in real projects what to standardize

For first-fix and service kits, align your consumables and small parts under UNI T installation so technicians always have the same leads, clips, probes, adapters, cases, and mounting bits sized for the meters they carry. Field consistency reduces repeat visits and simplifies training.

UNI T Building a measurement stack that fits your risk profile

Start with electricians’ basics and expand by environment:

• Electrical core
  Prioritize a CAT-rated DMM with input protection, a clamp meter with fast inrush capture, and an NCV tester. Consolidate PPE and must-have metrology in UNI T tools measuring instruments and protection to keep safety and measurement in one replenishment stream.
• Dimensional and environmental checks
  Add calipers, laser distance meters, IR thermometers for hotspot audits, and hygrometers for enclosure condensation risk. Source these staples via UNI T measuring instruments and log accuracy class, resolution, and calibration status for each asset.
• Commissioning and diagnostics
  For panels, motors, and building services, use insulation resistance testers, phase sequence testers, earth continuity leads, and socket testers. Round out the kit with multifunction testers and accessories from UNI T measuring and testing instruments so you can execute full verification without borrowing gear.

UNI T Engineering selection criteria for procurement

1. Safety category and protection
   Match CAT II III IV to the highest exposure in your workflow; verify fuse type, MOVs, creepage and clearance, and double insulation.
2. Accuracy and speed
   Specify accuracy class, counts, True RMS, sampling rate, and peak or inrush capture for transient-heavy sites with VFDs.
3. Environmental durability
   Check IP rating, drop resistance, operating temperature, and lead insulation class for cold rooms or hot plant rooms.
4. Calibration and traceability
   Choose models with easy calibration access, certificates on purchase, and published intervals; maintain an asset register with due dates.
5. Human factors
   Prioritize big displays, backlight, one-hand operation, detented selector switches, and lead storage that prevents damage.

Acceptance testing and documentation blueprint

• Electrical panels: dielectric test (where applicable), torque log of terminations, phase rotation verification, RCD trip time, and insulation resistance at specified test voltages.
• Motors and drives: insulation trend vs baseline, phase balance and harmonics snapshot, thermal scan after run-up.
• Building circuits: polarity, Zs or R1+R2, loop impedance targets, and socket tester results with photos.
• Record keeping: attach meter serials and calibration IDs to each test sheet; store raw readings and pass/fail thresholds in the job pack.

UNI T Maintenance and QA cadence

Quarterly: battery checks, visual inspection of leads, continuity of fuses, quick sanity tests on known sources.
Annually: full calibration, firmware updates, replacement of worn probes and crocodile clips, refresh of PPE with expiry dates.
After incidents: quarantine and re-inspect any instrument exposed to a fault or mechanical shock.
