Product Features; Important Warning; Description - AEMC 275HVD Manual De Instrucciones

Never assume conductors that have been tested as
de-energized will stay de-energized.
Always install proper grounding devices before working.
Failure to do so may result in serious injury or death.
2.1

Description

The Non-Contact High Voltage Detector Model 275HVD is a high voltage
detector by proximity. It is not designed to enter into contact with
conductors.
The 275HVD should never touch conductors and must be used
with an insulated fiberglass rod or Hot Stick appropriately
rated for the voltage being tested.
The Non-Contact High Voltage Detector Model 275HVD is not a "measuring
instrument" per say, rather it is a product designed to warn the user of the
presence of voltage in a particular work site.
The 275HVD uses an internal sensor designed to detect the radiated
electrical field (V/m) present in energized conductors. The radiated
electrical field increases with the line voltage but decreases with distance
and/or shielding.
The 275HVD has eight voltage range settings. These correspond to
internal field sensitivity settings: the lower the voltage setting; the higher
the sensitivity to detect the electrical field; and, the greater the detection
distance. It also has an "auto-test" setting to check functionality (see §
4.3).
