The microprocessor’s top priorities are to take live measurements and then analyze the
data. Hence, the microchip occasionally will not recognize the keypad buttons being
rapidly depressed, while it’s executing these changes.
The measurements taken by the SureTest Model 61-164 are broken into five main menus
positioned down the left side of the display: Wiring Configuration (
•
•
•
), Voltage (
V
),
Voltage Drop (
V
D
), ASCC, and Impedance (
Z
). To navigate to each of the main menus,
use the down arrow button (
↓
).
The Wiring Configuration (
•
•
•
) screen indicates correct wiring, reverse polarity,
hot/ground reversal and no ground conditions by sequencing the three balls. The label on
the back of the product explains the wiring sequence indications.
The Voltage (
V
) menu displays the True RMS line voltage in real-time. This main menu
has a sub-menu positioned horizontally at the bottom of the screen that displays the line
voltage (
RMS HN
), ground-to-ground voltage (
RMS GN
), Peak Voltage (
PEAK
), and
Frequency (
H
Z
). To navigate through the submenu, use the side arrow button (
→
).
The Voltage Drop (
V
D
) screen dual displays percent voltage drop with a 15 amp load
along with the resultant loaded voltage (
V
L
). This main menu has a submenu, which also
displays the percent voltage drop and loaded voltage with 20 amp and 12 loads. To
navigate through the submenu, use the side arrow button (
→
).
The
ASCC
screen displays the

urrent that the branch circuit can
deliver through the breaker during a bolted fault (dead-short) condition.
The Impedance (
Z
) main menu displays the impedance in ohms (
Ω
) of the hot conductor.
This main menu has a sub-menu positioned horizontally at the bottom of the screen that
also displays the neutral (
N
) and ground (
G
) conductor impedances. To navigate through
the submenu, use the side arrow button (
→
). Note that testing the ground impedance will
trip a GFCI protected circuit.
