PowerSuite range of software for electrical testing applications has been expanded to include a PDA package for on-site completion of test certificates.

Megger's PowerSuite range of software for electrical testing applications has been expanded to include a new PDA package. This enables on-site completion of test certificates, such as under Building Regulations Part P compliance, without the need for a computer or downloading intruments. Electrical installation testing, portable appliance testing (PAT) and checking other non-electrical apparatus requires taking many measurements, documenting the results and, where applicable, issuing certificates.

PowerSuite PDA simplifies these time consuming tasks and offers an alternative to carrying downloading instruments on-site.

By installing the package on a Palm OS or Windows CE compatible PDA, test certificates can be partially completed in the office, then uploaded to the PDA, for completion on-site.

Alternatively, empty certificates can be completed on-site, on the PDA, and downloaded to a PC for printing and safe storage.

PowerSuite PDA is a flexible package that allows the operator to take note of the test results and visual inspection on a PDA.

This information can then be downloaded onto a PC for printing certificates and databasing using PowerSuite Professional at a later date.

PowerSuite PDA allows the user to choose their optimum platform as it supports both Palm OS and pocket PC file formats.

Other key features of the PowerSuite PDA include simple form filling, dropdown boxes for quick navigation and easy form synchronisation.
