Non-Contact Voltage Detector 

 

Operating Instructions 

 

Description 

1.  The NCVD is used to detect the presence of 

hazardous AC voltages on cables in its vicinity 
without requiring electrical contact. A bar 
graph display indicates the level of voltage 
being detected by the NCVD. A Green LED 
indicator and audible alarm alerts low battery 
and the need for replacement. An optional 
conductive grounding cap can be used in 
conjunction with a grounding wire to avoid any 
stray voltages that may create a shock hazard.

To Operate The NCVD

 

1.  Press and hold the test button. The 10 

segment LED bar graph will illuminate 
momentarily, then extinguish. The Green LED 
will be lit solid as long as the test button is 
engaged. 

2.  Position the voltage detection sensor close to 

the cable where hazardous AC voltage is 
suspected. As the device begins to detect AC 
voltage, Red LEDs will illuminate from the 
bottom up.  Detected voltage is clearly marked 
on the sides of the bar graph, beginning at 9 
Volts and increasing to greater than 200 Volts.   

3.  If the AC voltage detected is in excess of 50 

Volts, a continuous audible alarm will sound, 
alerting the user of the presence of hazardous 
AC voltage

 

presence. 

4.  To operate the NCVD with the optional 

grounding cap, install the cap on the bottom of 
the unit with one end of the grounding wire 
attached to the head of the cap and the other 
end to a verified ground (Figure 1).

Caution! 

When the test button is pressed and the bar 
graph does not illuminate, the device will emit 
intermittent beeps while the Green LED 
indicator flashes. This signals that the battery 
is depleted and needs replacement.
