2. Informació important de seguretat
Always adhere to local and national safety codes. Failure to follow these safety instructions may result in electric shock, fire, or serious injury.
- Do not use the devices if they appear damaged or are not operating correctly.
- Verify the tester's operation on a known live circuit before and after use.
- Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when working with electricity.
- No intenteu mesurar el voltages exceeding the specified maximum ratings.
- Keep hands and fingers away from the probe tip of the voltage detector and the prongs of the socket tester during operation.
- These tools are for testing purposes only and are not intended for continuous monitoring.
3. DT10 Non-Contact Voltage Detector
3.1 Característiques
- Detecció sense contacte de CA voltage.
- Detecta AC voltagi de 90V a 1000V.
- Audible and LED visual alerts for voltage presència.
- Compact, pen-style design with pocket clip.

Image 3.1: Visual representation of key features for both the DT10 Non-Contact Voltage Detector (left) and the CC810 GFCI Socket Tester (right). The DT10 detects AC voltage from 90-1000V with audible and LED indication.
3.2 Funcionament
- Encès: Press the power button to turn on the detector. The LED indicator should illuminate, confirming the device is active.
- Autocomprovació: Test the detector on a known live circuit (e.g., a working wall outlet) to ensure it is functioning correctly. The LED should flash and an audible beep should sound.
- Detectar Voltage: Place the tip of the detector near the conductor, outlet, or circuit you wish to test.
- Indicació: Si AC voltage is detected, the LED will flash and an audible alarm will sound. The frequency of the flashes and beeps may increase with higher voltage o més a prop de la font.
- Apagar: Press the power button again to turn off the detector. It may also feature an auto-off function after a period of inactivity.
3.3 Specifications (DT10)
- Voltage Rang: 90V a 1000V AC
- Interval de freqüència: 50/60 Hz
- Classificació de seguretat: CAT II 1000V
- Font d'alimentació: 2 piles AAA (no incloses)
4. CC810 GFCI Socket Tester
4.1 Característiques
- Tests 125V AC outlets for common wiring faults.
- LED indicators for clear fault identification.
- Integrated GFCI test button to verify GFCI functionality.
- Disseny compacte i durador.
- Rated to CAT II 125V for residential environments.
4.2 Funcionament
- Insert Tester: Plug the CC810 into a standard 3-prong 125V AC outlet.
- Observe Indicators: The LED indicators on the tester will illuminate to show the wiring status of the outlet. Refer to the 'Interpreting Indicators' section for details.
- GFCI Test (if applicable): For GFCI-protected outlets, press the GFCI test button on the tester. A working GFCI outlet should trip, cutting power to the outlet.
- Reset GFCI: If the GFCI trips, reset it at the outlet or circuit breaker.
- Remove Tester: Unplug the tester from the outlet after completing the test.
4.3 Interpretació d'indicadors
The CC810 uses a combination of three LED lights to indicate the wiring status of the outlet. Refer to the legend on the device or the table below:
| Patró LED | Wiring Status | Acció necessària |
|---|---|---|
| Two amber lights on | Cablejat correcte | Cap |
| One amber light on (right) | Terra oberta | Consulteu un electricista qualificat. |
| One amber light on (left) | Neutre obert | Consulteu un electricista qualificat. |
| Sense llums enceses | Obriu Calent | Consulteu un electricista qualificat. |
| Two amber lights on, one red light on | Calent/Terra inversa | Consulteu un electricista qualificat. |
| One amber light on (left), one red light on | Invers calent/neutral | Consulteu un electricista qualificat. |
4.4 GFCI Test
To test a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protected outlet:
- Plug the CC810 into the GFCI outlet. Ensure the wiring status indicates 'Correct Wiring'.
- Press the red GFCI test button on the CC810.
- A functional GFCI should trip, cutting power to the outlet. The lights on the CC810 will turn off.
- If the GFCI does not trip, it may be faulty and should be replaced by a qualified electrician.
- Reset the GFCI by pressing its 'RESET' button or resetting the corresponding circuit breaker.
4.5 Specifications (CC810)
