GLP2-Basic electrical safety tester
The GLP2-Basic is Schleich’s best-selling electrical safety tester — and the best-selling safety tester IONIO supplies. Available in more than 50 variants with up to 21 combined test methods in one compact 19″ device. From a single protective conductor tester to a full combination tester with PE, insulation, high voltage AC/DC, leakage current and single-phase function test — all fully electronic, wear-free and compliant with the latest standards. Suitable for manual use, semi-automatic and fully automated production lines. Made in Germany. Available exclusively in the Benelux through IONIO.
Why the GLP2-Basic is IONIO’s best-selling system
The GLP2-Basic combines what the market demands: reliable measurement, fast delivery (standard from stock or within 5 working days), an intuitive 7-inch touchscreen and complete adaptability to your test process. Schleich offers more than 50 standard device variants — from a single protective conductor tester to a combination tester with 21 test methods. You only pay for what you need, but the platform scales as your requirements change. That is why manufacturing companies, laboratories and service departments across the Benelux choose the GLP2-Basic time and again.
Available test methods
Depending on the chosen variant, the GLP2-Basic combines up to 21 test methods in one enclosure:
- Protective conductor test (PE) — up to 30 A with electronically controlled constant test current; resistance calculated from voltage drop. Accurate, wear-free, compliant with EN 50191.
- Insulation resistance test — up to 6 kV, measurement between all conductors (class I) or conductors and housing parts (class II). Automatic discharge after measurement.
- High voltage test AC — up to 6 kV at 100 mA, electronically controlled. Automatic interruption when maximum leakage current is exceeded.
- High voltage test DC — up to 6 kV at 4 mA, direct voltage. Same protection as AC variant.
- Leakage current test — earth leakage and housing leakage current per EN, UL and international standards. Performed in parallel with the function test.
- Substitute leakage current test — suitable for situations without supply voltage on the test object.
- Function test single-phase 5 A — specialised measurement for low power ratings (e.g. LED lighting). Test voltage electronically generated in the device.
- Function test single-phase 16 A — external test supply via separate rear connection. Measurement of current, cosφ, active/reactive/apparent power.
52 variants: your test method, your configuration
Schleich offers more than 50 standard device variants of the GLP2-Basic, each with a fixed combination of test methods. Popular variants include:
- GLP2-Basic 1040 — PE + Insulation + HV AC, 19″ housing, 2-channel safety, available within 5 working days
- GLP2-Basic 1930 — PE + Insulation + HV AC + HV DC + Leakage + Function AC, complete combination tester
- GLP2-Basic 1322 — PE + Insulation + Function AC + Function DC, for products not requiring a high voltage test

Three operating modes: manual, semi-automatic and fully automatic
The GLP2-Basic is designed for every test scenario:
- Manual mode — unique in this class: all integrated test methods are directly usable without a test plan, like a multimeter. Measurement units and parameters are adjustable during a running measurement. Ideal for laboratory and repair stations.
- Semi-automatic mode — the operator follows the on-screen instructions, the device takes over the measurements. Suitable for varied production tasks with manual connections.
- Fully automatic mode — seamless integration into production lines via 19″ housing and industrial interfaces. Remote control via RS232, SCPI, PLC, PROFIBUS, PROFINET, EtherCAT and more.
Software: test plans, reporting and network
The GLP2-Basic runs on Windows Embedded with a 7-inch touchscreen. The included free editor&printer software offers:
- Management of up to 10,000 test plans and 250,000 test step results in the internal database
- Fully automatic test sequence with step-by-step display and GO/NO-GO evaluation
- User management with access levels — changes only by authorised persons
- Test reporting on paper, as PDF or CSV, in 15 languages including Dutch and English
- Freely configurable label printing for thermal transfer printers
- Network connection for central storage of test plans and results
- Remote maintenance and remote calibration via external access
- Script editor: PLC-like logic directly in the test device, for complex automation sequences
Safety: PL e, SIL 3, Cat. 4
Depending on the chosen variant and hazard level, the GLP2-Basic meets Performance Level e (PL e), SIL 3 and Cat. 4 per EN 50191. The dual-channel safety input with force-guided safety relays guarantees high process reliability. Automatic plausibility checks, built-in safety messages and connection options for warning lights and emergency stop are standard.
Technology Package: enhanced Windows interface
For applications with higher demands on user comfort, the optional Technology Package is available. This upgrades the GLP2-Basic to a full Windows PC with external touchscreen, improved test plan revision with dual-control principle and full integration with ERP, MES, PPS and CAQ systems. Ideal for globally networked production environments.
GLP2-Basic versus GLP2-Modular
The GLP2-Modular offers further modularity for more complex automation projects. The GLP2-Basic is the choice for standard safety tests in production, laboratory and service — available from stock, proven technology, low total cost of ownership.
