Voltmeter that can check 120 VAC and 24 VAC.
b.
Microammeter with a minimum scale range
of 0-25.
c.
Continuity checker.
d.
Inclined manometer with 0-2" w.c. range.
2.
Check for 120 VAC (minimum 102 VAC to
maximum 132 VAC) to boiler.
3.
Make sure thermostat is calling for heat and
contacts (including appropriate zone controls) are
