Non-Contact, High Voltage Detector 275HVD
5
2.2 Typical Uses (always use a Hot Stick)
Identify and check live cables
Check and detect live high voltage cables
Find fault in exible cables
Check grounding equipment
Service neon lighting
Trace live wires
Check high frequency radiation
Detect residual or induced voltages
IMPORTANT WARNING
The 275HVD detects radiated electrical elds. To accomplish
this, an energized cable or sample must radiate an electrical
eld. Shielded cables or shielded samples do not radiate, or
radiate very small electrical elds. Also, cables with concen-
tric neutrals will have a smaller/lower radiated eld than plain
insulated cables.
The 275HVD may not detect, as expected, an electrical eld
on shielded cables (buried cables are often shielded) or
shielded samples and the 275HVD has lower sensitivity on
cables with concentric neutrals.
It is not recommended to use the 275HVD on shielded
cables or shielded samples. Use extreme care on cables
with concentric neutrals (use a low setting).
