Non-Contact Voltage (NCV)
WARNING!
Never rely on the non-contact voltage function only. If a
voltage is not detected, confirm there is no voltage by
performing a voltage measurement with the test leads.
Failure to do this could result in injury. The non-con-
tact voltage feature works best when testing single
wires. Make sure the test leads and temperature probe
are disconnected while using the NCV feature.
