ALVA EV - Installation Multifunction Tester Kit
Di-LOG ALVA MFT EV Kit – Complete EV Testing Solution
The Di-LOG ALVA EV Installation Multifunction Tester Kit combines the trusted accuracy of the ALVA Multifunction Tester (MFT) with the targeted EV capabilities of the DLEVLite Type 1 EVSE Adaptor, delivering a compact, high-performance solution for electric vehicle charge point testing. Ideal for contractors and EV specialists, this kit enables fast, reliable, and fully compliant testing of Mode 3 EV installations in line with 18th Edition requirements.
At the heart of the kit is the Di-LOG ALVA MFT, a next-generation multifunction tester fully compliant with BS EN 61557. It features a high-resolution full-colour TFT screen, user-interactive pass/fail limit setting, and testing support for RCD types AC, A, B, B+, EV and F. With automated Continuity & Earth Loop Auto Start, a dual display, and intelligent 2/3 wire loop detection, it simplifies daily testing routines with greater speed and precision.
The MFT also includes a variable RDC test feature and 6mA RDC-PD/MD testing, enabling effective verification of EVSE charger safety. Inbuilt fuse tables provide immediate access to the maximum permitted Zs Loop values—essential for ensuring safe Earth Loop Impedance measurements in real-world installations.
Di-LOG ALVA EV Installation Multifunction Tester Kit Key Features
- Full-Colour TFT Display: Provides a high-contrast screen with interactive pass/fail settings for enhanced user experience.
- Comprehensive RCD Testing: Supports AC, A, B, B+, EV, and F types, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of installations, including EV charge points.
- Automated Continuity & Earth Loop Auto Start: Simplifies testing with a secondary display for recorded results, improving efficiency
- Advanced Loop Testing with Intelligent Detection & Xpert Loop Technology: The ALVA MFT Pro EV features Intelligent 2/3 Wire High-Current Loop Detection, which automatically identifies whether a 2-wire or 3-wire Loop/PSCC measurement is being conducted, eliminating manual selection errors. Combined with RCD-LOC+ Dynamic Non-Trip Loop Testing, this latest Xpert Loop Technology delivers high-accuracy low-current Earth Loop measurements with an adjustable test current feature, optimising test precision based on your RCD current. This ensures reliable loop impedance testing while maintaining maximum safety and accuracy in all environments.
- Insulation Test with Bargraph: with selectable voltages of 50, 100V, 250V, 500V & 1000V with adjustable pass/fail values
- 6mA EVSE Testing: Simple EV Charger Safety Verification with a 6mA RDC-PD/MD Testing as standard
- Integrated DLEVLite Charge Point Adaptor: Enables full functional testing of Mode 3 EV charging stations, ensuring charge point performance and safety.
- Control Pilot & Protective Earth Testing: DLEVLite Verifies Control Pilot (CP) status, detects CP Error “E” for added safety in EV charger installations.
- Rechargeable Capability (Optional Kit Required): The ALVA MFT includes an inbuilt charging facility when used with the optional NiMH battery and charge lead kit, allowing convenient charging and longer operation without regular battery changes.
- On-screen Help: a visual aid to assist test lead configuration and instruction
