15. Using the equipment
Assemble the equipment as required Press the TEST/ARMING
button to check the function of the internal circuitry and the
condition of the battery.
twice per second and the Buzzer should also sound twice per
second. When the button is released the High Bright Green leds
off immediately , replace the battery (see battery replacement). If
the detector still does not arm correctly, then it is faulty and should
be returned to the manufacturer for repair.
Manual Arming
Depress the TEST/ARMING button and the High Bright Red leds
second and on releasing the alarming/test button the High Bright
its armed state ready for use. This condition lasts for about
3 minutes, unless contact with High Voltage is made (see Self
Arming).
Self Arming
Once the contact electrode is in Contact with High Voltage, the
detector will switch ON by itself, the High Bright Green leds will
out
twice per second and the Buzzer should also sound twice per
second.
The complete assembled equipment should now be checked using
a known high voltage AC source. Arm the detector if necessary.
Present the detector, armed if necessary, to a known high voltage
source, touching it with the contact electrode. The High Bright Red
second.
Testing
Now present the detector to the conductor under test, touching
it with the contact electrode. If the voltage on the conductor is
greater than the threshold voltage of the detector, then the High
sound, twice per second. This indicates that the conductor is live.
The voltage present display will continue for as long as the
