Introduction
The 5708 and 5708-I GFCI and Circuit Testers are used to verify the
wiring and to check the operation of three-wire 120 volt ground fault
circuit interrupters. The units connect a resistor between the hot lead
and ground to create a small amount of leakage current. The GFCI is
intended to trip when the leakage current is between 5 and 7 milliamps.
When the GFCI trips, the circuit is opened and all the LEDs will shut off.
If the GFCI does not trip within a specified time period, the GFCI is faulty
and must be replaced.
• The 5708 creates the leakage current for 200 milliseconds, then
shuts off for 4 seconds. This sequence is repeated continuously.
• The 5708-I creates the leakage current for the time duration indicated
on the front of the unit, then shuts off. Total cycle time is approxi-
mately 17 seconds, regardless of the selector setting. The sequence
is repeated continuously.
