NCV Mode
Warning
The voltage indication in NCV mode does not indicate the absence of voltage.
Always verify that wires are de-energized with an additional tester.
To u s e N C V m o d e :
1. Scan a target area with the tip sensor to find the highest signal level.
2. With a wire detected, align the tip sensor perpendicular to the wire to find the highest signal
level. The groove on the top of the tip sensor aligns parallel to the wire. See Figure 9.
3. Periodically adjust the sensitivity to keep the signal strength near 75 %.
The signal strength indicator on the display changes. For the 2052R display, see Figure 16.
For the 2062R display, see Figure 17.
4. To identify the line or phase wire from the neutral wire, increase or decrease the sensitivity.
