Function / Application
Non-contact voltage tester for locating electrical voltages in cables,
sockets, lampholders and fuses. Visual signals indicate the presence
of a voltage.
Safety instructions
• In overvoltage category III (CAT III), the voltage between the test
device and earth must not exceed 600V.
• Do not use the device in environments in which there are con-
ductive particles or where the occurrence of moisture (in the form
of condensation, for example) can create transient conductivity.
• If you are working with voltages higher than 25 V AC/50 V DC,
exercise extreme caution. Touching the electrical conductors at
such voltages poses a risk of life-threatening electric shocks.
• If the device comes into contact with moisture or other conductive-
residue, work must not be carried out under voltage. At and above
voltages of 25 V AC/50 V DC, the presence of moisture creates the
risk of life-threatening electric shocks. Clean and dry the device
before use. When using the device outdoors, make sure that the
weather conditions are appropriate and/or that suitable protection
measures are taken.
• Before taking any measurements, make sure that both the area to
be tested (e.g. a line), the test device and the accessories used
(e.g. connection cable) are in proper working order. Test the device
by connecting it to known voltage sources (e.g. a 230 V socket in
the case of AC testing or a car battery in the case of DC testing).
Stop using the device if one or a number of its functions fails.
• Isolate the device from all current sources before opening the
battery compartment cover
• The device must only be used in accordance with its intended
purpose and within the scope of the specifications. Modifications
or changes to the device are not permitted, this will otherwise
invalidate the approval and safety specifications.
Observe the safety precautions of local and national authorities
relating to the correct use of the device and any prescribed safety
equipment (e.g. electrician's safety gloves).
