INTRODUCTION & SAFETY  

 

TIS Checkbox is a professional, multifunctional field checkbox, intended for use with all makes and models of 
installation test instruments. 

In addition to its durable body and simple operation it boasts the following features:  

  Insulation calibration with test voltages up to 1000 V,  

 

LowΩ and continuity accuracy verification,  

  Continuity and insulation of measurement leads verification,  

 

Hi Current and “No-trip loop” impedance measurement verification  

  Verification of RCD trip-out time measurement, including test current verification - 30 mA X1/X5. 

  Voltage and frequency calibration (A calibrated Multimeter to be used to verify mains voltage & 

frequency). 
Recommended Multimeter(s):  
                           

TIS201                                                         TIS280 

 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

                                

 

Please visit our web site: www.testinstrumentsolutions.co.uk to explore the full range of test instruments we 
provide.  

 

 

The TIS Checkbox is designed for accuracy verification whilst on-site testing, this product does not 
replace the need to have the instrument calibrated periodically.

  

 
(Please refer to the manufacturers recommended calibration interval)
