4.19 Non-Contact AC Voltage Detector (100 to 1000 V AC)
WARNING:
Risk of Electrocution. Before use, always test the
Voltage Detector on a known live circuit to verify proper
operation.
WARNING:
Insulation type and thickness, distance from the
source, and other factors may effect operation. Always verify
live voltage using other methods before working on electrical
circuits.
-
The non-contact voltage detector operates when the
meter is set to any measuring function. The detector
does not operate when Auto Power Off turns the meter
off or when the rotary function switch is set to the off
position.
-
Slowly move the detector probe closer to the
conductor being tested.
-
If AC voltage within the specified range is present, the
indicator light will illuminate.
NOTES:
The detector is designed with high sensitivity. Static
electricity and other sources of electrical energy may randomly activate the detector.
This is normal operation. The detector only activates the indicator light when AC voltage
is present. It does not indicate the voltage level on the LCD display.
