EARTH POWER OUTLET TESTER
1.
Most houses in Australia and New Zealand are wired correctly. For peace of mind,
the
Earth Power Outlet Tester
is used to verify that your electrical outlet is
wired properly for grounding. Simply plug it into an outlet, turn on the power and
check that the 3 amber lights light up. This indicates that your power point is
wired correctly. If not, do not use the product before consulting an electrician.
PRODUCT TESTER
1.
Leave the device you wish to test connected to the adaptor-plug-with-built-in-splitter. Connect the
tester to the other hole in the adaptor-plug-with-built-in-splitter.
2.
Plug the adaptor-plug-with-built-in-splitter into a wall socket or power board.
You can operate the tester with the power switch or power board, on or off.
3.
Place the tester directly on your Earthing
TM
product. PRESS down on the button
while you move the tester around the product. A green light confirms your
product and wire are in working order.
DIGITECH QM 1529 DIGITAL MULTIMETER
In addition to reading these instructions please make sure you read the Operators
Manual included with your multimeter before using.
1.
Turn your multimeter on to the
~V AC
voltage setting.
2.
Your multimeter comes with 3 leads—2 plain test leads and one test lead with
an alligator clip. Connect the test lead with the alligator clip to the
uAmA
jack
and a plain test lead to the
COM
jack. The third lead will not be used in these
instructions.
3.
Turn off the power point and plug the
adapter-plug-with-built-in-splitter into the power point or an attached power
board. (As you are testing the Earth there is not really any chance of electrocution even if the
power is turned on, however, we recommend turning the power off anyway just as a precaution.)
4.
Attach the test lead with the alligator clip to either of the holes on the adapter-plug-with-built-in-
splitter. To get an accurate reading you must connect the multimeter to the same Earth terminal
that your Earthing product is plugged into.
5.
Attach your Earthing product lead to the unused hole in the adaptor-plug-with-built-in-splitter.
6.
Making sure you are not touching an Earthing product, take the end of the test lead without the
alligator clip between your fingers. Depending on the AC Electromagnetic field coming from the
wiring and appliances in your building, you will get a reading probably anywhere between .05V and
50V. There can be enormous variation in voltage even within the same building depending on
nearby wiring and which appliances are switched on at the wall etc. You will also usually find the
higher you are from the ground the higher the voltage in your body.
7.
While still holding the Multimeter probe, touch your Earthing product with the skin from any part
of your body. If your product is correctly connected and working properly you should notice a
significant drop in voltage on the multimeter. Typically, you will find the voltage will drop 10 or 20
times the un-earthed levels.
