E-Z Check®Plus G.F.C.I. Tester

• Super-bright indicator lights

• Impact-resistant plastic construction

• Convenient “push-pull” shape

Tests For

• Open ground • Test for G.F.C.I.

• Hot on neutral and hot open • Open neutral*

• Hot and ground reversed • Open hot

Cautions

• Do not use tester in cardiac care areas.

• All corrective work must be made by a qualified electrician.

• When testing G.F.C.I. installed in two-wire systems (no ground wire available), the tester may give a false indication that the G.F.C.I. is not functioning properly. If this occurs, recheck the operation of the G.F.C.I. using the test and reset buttons. The G.F.C.I. button test function will demonstrate proper operation.

Instructions for G.F.C.I.

1. Always test on a known live circuit before use to assure the unit is in operating condition. Plug E-Z Check

Plus tester into receptacle. The combination of

bright lights indicates wiring sequence.

2. If the receptacle under test is G.F.C.I. protected, you have automatically tested for nuisance tripping. (If insertion of the tester tripped the G.F.C.I., either there is additional leakage to ground or the G.F.C.I. trip level is set too low.)

3. Consult the G.F.C.I. manufacturer’s instructions to determine that the G.F.C.I. is installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s specifications.

4. Check for correct wiring of receptacle and all remotely connected receptacles on the branch circuit.

5. Operate the test button on the G.F.C.I. installed in the circuit. The G.F.C.I. must trip. If it does not — do not use the circuit — consult a qualified electrician. If the G.F.C.I. does trip, reset the G.F.C.I. Then, insert the E-Z Check

Plus Circuit

Tester into the receptacle to be tested.

6. With the tester plugged into a G.F.C.I. receptacle and both outside lights lit, simply push the test button on top of the tester. The right light bulb should become dark for an instant, the G.F.C.I. should trip and then both lights should go out indicating a properly functioning G.F.C.I. If the right light becomes dark, it indicates a properly functioning tester. But if both lights do not go out and the G.F.C.I. does not trip, it suggests a: (a.) wiring problem with a totally operable G.F.C.I. or (b.) proper wiring with a faulty G.F.C.I. Consult with a qualified electrician to check the condition of the wiring and G.F.C.I.
