To Locate heating wire within walls
Traces heating wires within plastered walls. A quickened
signal indicates an energized wire, if it ceases, a
break is located.
To locate breaks in insulated wire and
heating elements
Energize the wire or element and trace along it
until the quickened "beep" or siren ceases. This
indicates the point of the break, or "open".
Safety check on power tools and appliances
While the device is connected to an AC voltage,
touch the probe tip to the metal casing. Test
with your power tool device switched off and
on. No increase in beep rate indicates a safely
grounded tool or appliance. This test will not
work on power tools with plastic cases.
Outlets and Switches
Place probe tip against an outlet or switch contact,
increase beeping indicates voltage.
Loadbreak connectors
Check for power at high voltage transformers at
elbow test point.
Transmission Lines
Determine which conductor carries power and if
ground cables carry high static charge.
TV High voltage
Check picture tube
and HV transformer.
TIC 300HV High
voltage applications
With the unit
switched in the High
range, the
instrument will
detect voltages
above 1500V.
Always use a Hot
Stick, model TIC 410A,
in these applications.
AC Voltage detection without connections
Senses voltage electrostatically without wire contact.
The necessary tool for everyone involved with
electrical systems.
