Trusted PV Testing, Still Supported

The PV150+ helped solar installers safely commission and maintain PV systems for many years. While now superseded by the newer PV:1525 Series, the PV150+ remains supported for existing users requiring calibration, service, downloads and technical guidance.

Designed for testing and commissioning photovoltaic systems up to 1000V DC, the PV150+ combines essential electrical safety tests into one portable instrument for straightforward field testing.

Upgrade to the Next Generation

The PV:1525 Series builds on the trusted workflow of the PV150+ while introducing enhanced performance, faster commissioning workflows and support for modern high efficiency PV systems, including:

1500V DC testing capability
Support for modern high efficiency PV modules
Faster commissioning workflows
Bluetooth reporting with PV:Sync Mobile
Increased current capability
Enhanced protection technology

Recommended replacement: PV:1525 Series
