- Designed for use with hot sticks incorporating a shotgun adapter
- Powered by three standard Alkalkine C cell batteries
The AEMC 275HVD Voltage Detector is designed to detect the presence of high voltage without physical contact. An eight
position rotary switch selects the detection range. As the sensor is moved closer to the voltage carrying conductor
its sensor head picks up the radiated electric field. Once the range threshold is reached, the buzzer sounds
and a bright red warning light warns the operator of live conductors.
AEMC 275HVD Voltage Detectors are powered by three standard alkaline "C" cell batteries and can be used both indoors and out. A
universal spline on the back-end facilitates attachment to any standard hot stick. A self-test position
ensures that all circuitry and indicators are working properly before use.
Applications for the AEMC 275HVD Voltage Detector:
Non-contact detection of live voltages
Check and detect live high voltage cables
Find faults in cables
Check grounding equipment
Service neon lighting
Trace live wires
Check high frequency radiation
Detect residual or induced voltages
The AEMC 275HVD Voltage Detector ships complete with:
Shotgun adapter
(3) "C" cell batteries
Carrying case (padded)
