- Provides non-contact AC voltage detection from 90 V AC to 1000 V AC with a CAT IV 1000 V safety rating
- Tests for AC voltage in cables, circuit breakers, wall sockets, junction boxes, fuses, and more, without requiring disconnection of the electrical system
- Issues simultaneous audible, visual, and shaker alerts when voltage is detected
- Features a fully insulated probe, with no exposed metal or conductive parts
- Safety rated for indoor and outdoor applications
Description
The Amprobe VP-1000SB Non-Contact Voltage Probe with shaker and beeper provides maximum safety and convenience for detecting AC voltage without interrupting electrical systems. Designed to conveniently fit in your shirt pocket, the VP-1000SB looks like a voltage detector pen; yet it performs in the toughest indoor and outdoor applications, operating as ‘always on’ with no buttons to push. The VP-1000SB provides visual, audible, and shaker alerts when greater than 90 V AC voltage is present, which allows the user to discern between hot and neutral wires in conventional outlets. Voltage probes with sensitivity levels set below 90 V often do not allow the user to distinguish between hot and neutral wires.
