Why we picked it

Grounding products depend entirely on your socket’s earth. A basic plug-in tester shows common wiring faults, including a missing earth, in seconds.

Best for

Checking a socket is wired correctly with an earth connection before plugging in any grounding product

Not for

Replacing an electrician’s inspection: plug-in testers cannot measure earth loop impedance or spot every fault

The details that matter.

  • • Plug-in 13A socket tester
  • • Shows common wiring faults, including missing earth
  • • £19.40 at Screwfix
  • • Not a substitute for an electrical inspection
