FAQs

What is the purpose of the insulated blade sheaths?

The insulated blade sheaths provide an added layer of protection to help prevent accidental contact with energized components, thereby reducing the risk of electric shock.

Can I use this tester to check the voltage in my car?

No, this tester is designed for mains voltage (120V/240V) and is not suitable for automotive applications (12V).

How do I know if the tester is working properly?

Test the device in a known live outlet. If the tester lights up, it is functioning correctly. If it does not light up, do not use it.

What should I do if the handle cracks?

Discontinue use immediately and replace the tester. A cracked handle can compromise the insulation and create a safety hazard.

How often should I replace the testers?

Replace the testers if they show any signs of damage, wear, or if you suspect they may have been compromised. Regular inspection is key.

Troubleshooting

Tester does not light up when inserted into a known live outlet.

Check that the bulb inside the tester is intact. Replace the tester if the bulb is broken or if the tester is damaged.
