4.18. Capturing Peak Values
WARNING:
Risk of Electrocution. Before use,
always test the Voltage Detector on a known live
circuit to verify proper operation.
4.19. Non-Contact AC Voltage Detector (100 to 1000V AC)
WARNING:
Insulation type and thickness,
distance from the source, and other factors may
effect operation. Always verify live voltage using
other methods before working on electrical
circuits.
1. The non-contact voltage detector
operates when the meter is set to
any measuring function. The detector
does not operate when
AUTO POWER OFF
turns the meter off
or when the rotary function switch is set
to the
OFF
position.
2. Slowly move the detector probe
closer to the conductor being
tested.
3. If
AC
voltage within the specified
range is present, the indicator light
will illuminate.
NOTES:
The detector is designed with high sensitivity. Static electricity and
other sources of electrical energy may randomly activate the detector. This is
a normal operation. The detector only activates the indicator light when
AC
voltage is present. It does not indicate the voltage level on the LCD display.
