 Full Range ARVI Operating Instructions

Product Safety

Before and after each use, always test the unit on a known energized voltage source or with the 

Voltage Indicator Tester to verify proper operation.

The equipment covered in this manual must be used and serviced only by competently trained 

personnel familiar with and following approved work and safety practices. This equipment is for 

use by such personnel and this manual is not intended as a substitute for adequate training and 

experience in safe procedures for this type of equipment.

These instructions neither cover all details or situations in equipment use, nor do they provide for 

every possible contingency to be encountered in relation to installation, operation or maintenance. 

Should additional information and details be desired or if situations arise which are not covered 

adequately for the user’s purpose, the specifics should be referred to Hubbell Power Systems.

!

 WARNING

Always use an appropriate length insulated Hot Stick even when wearing rubber gloves. Contact 

with the universal coupling or other parts even with rubber gloves will cause erroneous readings. 

Always use with a universal pole to maintain its calibration.
