Quicktest QT1
The Quicktest is ideal for electrical shops, factories, labs and service departments.
This is a compact, robust, power connector designed for temporary, safe and efficient connection of unterminated cables to 250V AC or 24V DC power supplies. The Cliff™ QT1 has a maximum power rating of 13 amps* (see duty cycle, below).
With its lid open the wires of a plugless lead can be inserted into the insulated clips. When the lid is closed, current passes to the equipment being demonstrated or tested.
A neon light shows that the connector is live hot and ready to use. The fuse (BS 1362) is easily accessible for replacement.
The connector is made of tough, safe materials. The base is phenolic moulded molded for insulation and rigidity. The lid is flame retardant glass filled thermo plastic.
The insulated clips are colour color coded for easy identification. The flexible cable grip will take any normal mains cable. Only one small screwdriver is needed for both the base entry and the terminal screws.

Quicktest QT3
This is a compact, robust, power connector designed for temporary, safe and efficient connection of unterminated cables to 440V AC, three-phase power supplies. The QT3 has a maximum power rating of 16 amps* (see duty cycle, below).
The Cliff™ QT3 is designed for use in applications including manufacturing, test and repair, calibration, measurement and burn-in. Anywhere a fast, safe and non-permanent connection to a three-phase power supply is required.
Connection to the Quickest takes just a few seconds. Simply open the lid, which automatically isolates the three phase supply, insert each bare cable end by pressing the five colour-codedcolor-coded piano key cable clips, and then close the lid to complete the circuit between the device being tested and the power supply. Opening the lid again isolates the supply source so the conductors can be rapidly removed.
