Non-Contact AC Voltage Measurements
1)
Touch the probe tip to the hot conductor or insert into
the hot side of the electrical outlet.
2)
If AC voltage is present, the detector light will
illuminate.
NOTE
: The conductors in electrical cord sets are often
twisted. For best results, rub the probe tip along a
length of the cord to assure placing the tip in close
proximity to the live conductor.
NOTE
: The detector is designed with high sensitivity.
Static electricity or other sources of energy may
randomly trip the sensor. This is normal operation
