Voltage Tester
Instruction Manual
WARNING
Read First: Safety Information
Use the tester only as specified in this manual; otherwise, the protection provided by the tester may be impaired.
Warning
To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury, follow these guidelines:
•Do not use tester if it is damaged. Visually inspect tester to ensure case is not cracked.
•Inspect and replace leads if insulation is damaged, metal is exposed, or probes are cracked. Pay particular attention to the insulation surrounding the connectors.
•Do not use tester if it operates abnormally as protection maybe impaired.
•Do not use during electrical storms or in wet weather.
•Do not use around explosive gas, dust, or vapor.
•Do not apply more than the rated voltage to the tester. Voltage is not to exceed 600V.
•Always operate this solenoid-type tester within the specified duty cycle on the front of the tester. Duty cycle ratio is:
•1:7 ON:OFF time for 240V or less
•1:40 ON:OFF time for 240V or greater.
•Maximum ON time is 15 seconds.
Caution
To protect yourself, think "Safety First":
•Voltages exceeding 30VAC or 60VDC pose a shock hazard so use caution.
•Never ground yourself when taking electrical measurements.
•Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses, face shields, insulating gloves, insulating boots, and/or insulating mats.
•Use the 3-Step Testing Method. Before each use:
•Verify tester operation by measuring a known voltage. Apply tester to circuit under test. And, then test on the known live voltage again to ensure proper operation.
•Connect the black common lead to ground before applying the red test lead to voltage. Disconnect the red test lead from the voltage first.
•Always work with a partner.
•When using the probes, keep fingers as far behind the probe tips as possible.
Features:
•Vibration Mode with indicator movement
•Independent solenoid and electronic circuitry design provides back-up voltage indication for added safety
•Low Impedance Measuring Device
•Replaceable Test Leads
•Shielded probe tips
•Ultrasonically welded for added durability
Accessories:
•61-072 Resistor-fused test leads
•C-90 Soft-sided carrying case
•61-010 Leather case
To Measure AC Voltage:
•Ensure that the plug for the test leads is fully seated into the banana jacks.
•Connect the tester in parallel with the load or circuit.
•The tester indicates both the voltage type and the voltage level.
To Measure DC Voltage:
•Ensure that the plug for the test leads is fully seated into the banana jacks.
•Connect the tester in parallel with the load or circuit.
•The tester indicates the voltage type, polarity, and the voltage level.

Applications:
•Locating Blown Fuses
With power on: Place tester across the “source” side of one fuse and the load side of an adjoining fuse. If no voltage is indicated, the fuse next to the load side prod is blown.
If voltage is indicated, the fuse next to the load side prod is OK. Repeat the same test with the prods on the opposite side of the same two fuses to check the other fuse.
On a three phase circuit, repeat the same test as above. An indication of no voltage or lower than normal line voltage indicates the blown fuse.
•Testing for 25 to 60 Cycle Frequency
Place tester between each side of AC line. A low frequency hum and slow vibrations indicate 25 cycle current. 60 cycle current is indicated by a higher frequency hum and more rapid vibrations.
Test Lead Replacement:
•Replace leads only with IDEAL test leads below.
•# 61-070 Standard Test Leads with Shielded Probe Tips
•# 61-072 Resistor-fused Test Leads with Shielded Probe Tips. Each probe tip contains a special, current-limiting resistor which acts like a fuse to limit short-circuit current and prevents dangerous arcing during a shorted condition. The resistors are rated to 140Ω +/- 10%. Fusing current is 1A at 125V. Fusing time is 3060ms at 125V, without causing dangerous conditions during opening of the fuse element. Leads need to be replaced when fuse has opened.
Maintenance:
•Clean the case with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not use abrasives or solvents.
