The Southwire 41171N Precision Voltage Detector & Tester
packs a variety of useful functions into one versatile and
powerful electrical tester. It’s designed to fit comfortably in
your pocket and conveniently performs three of the most
common electrician tasks: detect voltage, measure voltage, and
test continuity. The tester provides a simple and easy way to
test AC and DC voltage up to 600V. Activate the non-contact
voltage (NCV) detector for detecting the presence of AC voltage
from 100-1000V. The NCV alerts you with both a red flashing
LED and an audible sounder. There’s a handy work light that
you can use anytime for those dimly lit areas. The 41171N is
also a great Continuity Tester with both audible and visual
confirmation.
