Furthermore the BE17 has a function of FI/RCD test, or rather power failure protection. The status of the measured values can be read easily ​​on a LED display.

Despite such a variety of features, the BE20 is still very compact and quick and easy to use. Its ergonomic design and low weight mean that it sits nicely in the hand and there’s also a nice, little extra safety feature – a handy, built-in flashlight which can be switched on to light up the measuring area when work is to be carried out in the dark.
