In 2025, here at PAT Reviews we are taking a fresh look at testers and how they stand up with the changes in the updated Standard: AS/NZS3760: 2022. The next tester on our list is the Kyoritsu 6201A. Priced in the $1,000-$2,000 bench mark. You shouldn’t be able to pick this up brand new as a PAT out of the box as it has been superseded by the much nicer (and far less flawed) Kyoritsu 6205.

With 2025 already in full swing, here at PAT Reviews we are interested in this little compact tester; the Sonel, EasiPAT 10. When we reviewed it several years ago it was a good solid safety tester, rather than just a compliance tester like many testers out there are. With the change in the Standard AS/NZS3760, now is a great time to see how this tester has held up, whether for good or for bad, lets find

Today’s review is a little different as it is dealing with an advanced but very old model that has been updated numerous times over the years, that said its a proven Pat, so what is it were reviewing, none other than the Seaward Super Nova.As is usual a little background, the Super Nova went into production in the late 1990s a totally different looking tester followed it which was very similar in operation and that

Today we are continuing to look at some of the old Pat’s that are still out there even though they are mostly out of productionToday we are going to look at the metroPat 600/900As usual a bit of background here, As could be assumed the metroPat 600 came first in the mid 1990s and then the newer model 900 in the late 1990sBoth units came in the standard Metrotest case of the time so until
