9.5 NCV AC Electric Field Sensing 

 

(Picture 6a)

The electric field sensing sensitivity is divided into two levels 
(“EFHI” and “EFLo”). The meter defaults to “EFHI”. Users can select 
different sensitivity levels according to the intensity of the measured 
electric field. Select "EFHI" of NCV when electric field is around 220V 
AC 50Hz/60Hz. Bring the NCV sensing end close to a charged electric 
field (socket, insulated wire, etc.). The LCD will display the segment 
"-" with beeps and red LED flashing. As the intensity of the measured 
electric field increases, the more segments (----) display , the higher 
frequency of buzzer beeps and LED flashes. Select “EFLo” when the 
electric field is around 110V AC 50Hz/60Hz. 

       Caution:

Use the NCV sensing end to approach measured electric field, 
otherwise the measurement sensitivity will be affected. When the 
measured electric field voltage is over 100V AC, observe whether the 
conductor is insulated to avoid personal injury. 

9.6 Others

    Auto power off: The meter will automatically power off to save power 
    if there is no operation for 15 min. You can wake it up by pressing 
    any button or restart it after turning the switch to OFF.
    Press and hold the SELECT button in off state and then turn on the 
    meter again to disable the auto power off function. Restart the meter 
    after shut it down to resume this function. 
    Buzzer: When any button is pressed or the function switch is turned, 
    if it is valid, the buzzer will make one beep (about 0.25s). The buzzer 
    will also beep intermittently to indicate the over range during the 
    voltage or current measurement. 
    Low battery detection: The battery voltage will be automatically 
    detected as long as the meter is on. If it is lower than 2.6V, the LCD 
    will display the “       ” symbol.
    Low battery shutdown function: When the battery voltage is lower 
    than 2.5V, the LCD displays the “       ” symbol, the “Lo.bt” interface 
    appears and lasts for about 10s, the buzzer makes consecutive 
    beeps 3 times, and then the meter automatically shuts down (no  
    

is displayed).

A. Add 3% when the peak factor is 1 ~ 2

    

B. Add 5% when the peak factor is 2 ~ 2.5

Accuracy

The electric field sensing sensitivity 
is divided into two levels (“EFHI” & 
“EFLo”). The meter defaults to “EFHI”. 
a) AC voltage above 24V±6V can be 
   sensed. "EFLo" mode is recommended 
   when the power frequency voltage is 
   110V. 
b) "EFHI" can be set in 220V condition. 
   AC voltage above 74V±12V can be 
   sensed with getting close to wires, 
   and identify whether the main socket 
   is charged or to judge the live/neutral 
   wire of socket according to the intensity 
   of sensing. 
   Note: Test results may be affected by 
   different socket designs or wire I
   nsulation thickness. 

11. Maintenance

        Warning: Before opening the rear cover of meter , remove test
leads to avoid electric shock.

11.1 General Maintenance

      

Clean the meter casing with a soft cloth and mild detergent. Do 

     not use abrasives or solvents! 

      

Do not use the tester or test leads if they appear to have any 

      

abnormality. 

      

The maintenance and service must be implemented by qualified 

      

professionals or designated departments. 

11.2 Battery Replacement (Picture 7) 

When the “       ” symbol appears on the LCD, please replace the 
batteries in time to ensure measurement accuracy. Batteries 
specification: 
2 standard AAA 1.5V batteries. 

Operation

      

Turn off the meter and remove the test leads from the input terminals. 

      

Unscrew the screw of the battery compartment, remove the battery 

     cover, and take out the used batteries as shown. 

      

Replace the 2 standard AAA batteries according to the polarity 

     indication.

TESTING IN CAT III MEASUREMENT LOCATIONS

Ensure the test lead shield pressed firmly in place. Failure to use 
the CAT III shield increases arc-flash risk.

TESTING IN CAT II MEASUREMENT LOCATIONS

CAT III shields may be removed for CAT II locations. This will allow 
testing on recessed conductors such as standard wall outlets. 
Take care not to lose the shields.
