Unbeatable foundation for future developments

"We're proud of our heritage," said Nick Hilditch, of Megger, "but we strongly believe that the most important aspect of our history is that it provides us with an unbeatable foundation for current and future developments. Megger is always at the forefront of technology - it developed, for example, the first practical insulation tester, as well as the world's first multimeter, and this spirit of innovation continues to be very much to the fore in all of our operations."

Radical new products

"In the last few months alone," continued Hilditch, "we have launched a radically new combination tester which sets new standards of convenience and performance for electrical contractors; as well as such ground-breaking products as 10kV insulation and low resistance testers, power quality analyzers, and optical fiber installation testers specifically designed to meet the needs of the fast-growing data communication market."

A century ago, Megger was a small UK-based organisation, manufacturing a handful of products. Today, Megger products are developed and manufactured at sites in Dover, England; Dallas, Texas; and Valley Forge, Pennsylvania.
