This meter features a Self-Test at each Power ON, Automatic AC/DC voltage and DC polarity detection, a low battery indication, an Auto Power Off function and comes with 3 1.5V AAA Batteries. A Pro industrial grade over molding design makes this tester easy to grip and capable of sustaining a drop from 6.5 ft (2 m). The meter has a hanging strap mount (compatible with all other IDEAL meters with this feature) that allows for a hanging strap (sold separately) to be attached to the meter so it can be hung from a nail, screw or magnetic surface.
The back of the meter has built-in two position dual probe holder the lower position allows for probe storage, the higher position allows for and testing or measurement holding the meter and secured probe in one hand and the probe in the other hand, or for both probes to be secured in the tip while conducting outlet testing.
The unit uses an illuminated red LED in the center of meter and audible tones to notify when voltage is above 36V AC / 50V DC, when continuity is detected and when the NCV senses voltage within its set range. II 1000V (without protective cap), 10 Amp rated test lead and probe set with alligator clips. Now that you have your tools ready, let’s dive into the step-by-step guide on how to test electrical wire for continuity. Probe tips: These sharp-pointed accessories are connected to the test leads and facilitate the precise contact with the wire being tested. The meter has an LCD display that can be backlit, and a built-in flashlight that can be illuminated when working in poor or zero lighting conditions. They come in different varieties, such as alligator clips or probe tips. It detects the presence of voltage between 90V to 600V AC via a non-contact sensor in the top center of the meter and can perform a GFCI trip test via the probes and test button. The IDEAL 61-557 Voltage Continuity Tester is a CAT IV 600 V rated auto ranging average root mean square (ARMS) digital meter that measures AC and DC voltage, Low Impedance AC Voltage (Lo Z) (to reduce the possibility of false readings due to ghost voltages), and continuity, via test-leads. Wire Cutters, Crimpers, Multi-Purpose Tools.They will also understand how to use the split-half method to troubleshoot more efficiently, how to ensure accurate continuity tests, and when and why continuity testing may not be feasible. Rated 5.00 out of 5 based on 3 customer ratings. Specifications: Item type: Test lead kit Probe Color: red and black Material: metal+silicon rubber Cable Current: 20A Voltage : 1000v Cable Length:83cm/32.7' Total Length:103cm/40. Technicians should also be aware of various conditions that might affect the accuracy or practicality of continuity testing.Īfter taking this course, users will be familiar with continuity testing procedures using both a continuity tester and a multimeter. A continuity test checks to see if a continuous (unbroken) connection exists between the two probe tips. KAIWEETS 23PCS Multimeter Test Leads Kit with Replaceable Precision Probes Set and Alligator Clips, Test Probes, Test Hook, Flexible Wires Professional Kit General Use for Digital Electrical Testing. Technicians may use techniques such as the split-half method while continuity testing to locate malfunctioning components more quickly and efficiently.
Continuity testing may be performed with a single-function continuity tester or with a multimeter. Continuity testing determines whether electrical current is able to flow through a circuit and is commonly used to troubleshoot open circuit faults. This class describes how to troubleshoot electrical circuits with continuity testing.
