Operation

Thank you for choosing a Testboy ^® TB115 Bit.

Non-contact voltage tester from 12 V AC

| Integrated bit bracket

Non-contact voltage test

The Testboy ^® TB115 Bit is capable of detecting wires carrying live voltages using its built-in circuits in its tip.

If a voltage of 110 V AC or more is detected, the white cap will glow red (1a) and the device vibrates. To detect voltages below 110 V AC, switch the flashlight on using the switch (1b). The white cap now illuminates blue (see figure point 1a). Now voltages from 12 V AC can be detected. If an AC voltage of 12 Volt AC or higher is detected, the white cap will illuminate purple (blue + red see figure, point 1a).

A flowing current is not required!

1b 2 1a

Check the voltage tester before use against a known voltage supply (e.g. a power socket) to ensure that it is working correctly.

Do not use the voltage tester if damaged!

When using the Tester, if tip does not glow, voltage could still be present. The Tester indicates active voltage in the presence of electrostatic fields of sufficient strength generated from the source (MAINS) voltage. If the field strength is low, the Tester may not provide indication of live voltages. Lack of an indication occurs if the Tester is unable to sense the presence of voltage which may be influenced by several factors including, but not limited to:

• Shielded wire/cables
• Thickness and type of insulation
• Distance from the voltage source
  ● Fully-isolated users that prevent an effective ground
  ● Receptacles in recessed sockets/ differences in socket design
• Condition of the Tester and Batteries

WARNING

Use caution with voltages above 30 V ac as a shock hazard may exist.

FOR USE BY COMPETENT PERSONS

Anyone using this instrument should be knowledgeable and trained about the risks involved with measuring voltage, especially in an industrial setting, and the importance of taking safety precautions and of testing the instrument before and after using it to ensure that it is in good working condition.

The single-pole phase testing is not appropriate to determine whether a line is live or not. For this purpose, the double-pole voltage test is always required.

Definition of measurement categories.

Measurement category II:

Measurement category II is applicable to test and measuring circuits connected directly to utilization points (socket outlets and similar points) of the low-voltage mains installation. Typical short-circuit current is < 10 kA.
