Warning
:
•
Always de-energize power before accessing an electrical enclosure.
•
Always follow safety and lockout/tagout procedures when working on or near electrical systems and equipment.
•
Use proper
personal protective equipment (PPE) when working around sources of hazardous electrical energy.
•
Battery, AVT System Cable and O-rings can be replaced. No other part of the product is serviceable. Do not
attempt to open the Indicator Module or Isolation Module for repair or modification. When servicing this product,
only use specified replacement parts.
The AVT checks for proper connection of the sensor and ground leads, verifies the battery voltage level is acceptable for proper
operation and verifies that the tester is working properly with a series of self checks. If it fails any of these tests, it will indicate
a failed test by illuminating the Caution Indicator for approximately 5 seconds. The AVT includes functionality to diagnose and
communicate the reasons for test failure with flashing of the Caution Indicator. If the test fails, illumination of the Caution
Indicator will be followed by a number of brief flashes ranging from 1-7. The number of flashes can be used to determine why
the absence of voltage test failed.
