    IDEAL Automatic Circuit Breaker Finder, Model 61-535

    IDEAL
    Description The IDEAL 61-535 is a 120V AC Circuit Breaker Finder that automatically identifies a circuit breaker/fuse protecting a live branch circuit. It consists of a transmitter and a receiver. The Transmitter sends a signal over the conductors when connected to an energized circuit. It also identifies the presence of power and indicates corrector/incorrect wiring conditions via illuminated Green and Red LED’s and contains a GFCI Trip Tester. The receiver reads the transmitter’s signal and identifies the breaker/fuse energizing the circuit by illuminating a flashing green LED and emitting beeps once it determines the breaker/fuse with the strongest signal. The receiver also senses the presence of AC voltage (60 - 600 V AC) via and non-contact voltage (NCV) sensor in the tip. The receiver indicates the presence of AC voltage by illuminating a red flashing LED and emitting a beeping sound. The audible tone for both the breaker finding mode and the NCV mode can be muted via a button for working in noise sensitive areas. The receiver also includes a work light that can be operated independently for work in poorly lit conditions.

    IDEAL Voltage & Continuity Tester w/ LCD GFCI Flashlight & NCVT, Model 61-557

    IDEAL
    Description The IDEAL 61-557 Voltage Continuity Tester is a CAT IV 600 V rated auto ranging average root mean square (ARMS) digital meter that measures AC and DC voltage, Low Impedance AC Voltage (Lo Z) (to reduce the possibility of false readings due to ghost voltages) , and continuity, via test-leads. It detects the presence of voltage between 90V to 600V AC via a non-contact sensor in the top center of the meter and can perform a GFCI trip test via the probes and test button. The meter has an LCD display that can be backlit, and a built-in flashlight that can be illuminated when working in poor or zero lighting conditions. The unit uses an illuminated red LED in the center of meter and audible tones to notify when voltage is above 36V AC / 50V DC , when continuity is detected and when the NCV senses voltage within its set range. The back of the meter has built-in two position dual probe holder; the lower position allows for probe storage, the higher position allows for and testing or measurement holding the meter and secured probe in one hand and the probe in the other hand, or for both probes to be secured in the tip while conducting outlet testing. The meter has a hanging strap mount (compatible with all other IDEAL meters with this feature) that allows for a hanging strap (sold separately) to be attached to the meter so it can be hung from a nail, screw or magnetic surface. A Pro industrial grade over molding design makes this tester easy to grip and capable of sustaining a drop from 6.5 ft (2 m). This meter features a Self-Test at each Power ON, Automatic AC/DC voltage and DC polarity detection, a low battery indication, an Auto Power Off function and comes with 3 1.5V AAA Batteries. Features UL Certiffied CAT IV 600V, 0-600V AC/DC Measures AC/DC voltage, Low Impedance AC Voltage (Lo Z) (for ghost voltage dissipation), automatically identifies AC or DC voltage and determines DC polarity and Tests for Continuity and GFCI operation Large, easy to read LCD with integrated back light and flashlight for work in dark locations Industrial grip, probe holders and hanging strap clip increase productivity and durability Integral probe holders allow insertion of probes directly into outlet IP 42 Rated Technical Information CAT Rating (Safety): CAT IV 600V Listing Preferred: cULus, CE Drop Protection: 6.6 ft (2m) Ingress Protection: IP42 AC Voltage: 6-600V DC Voltage: 6-600V High Voltage Alarm: ACV >36V or DCV >50V Audible Continuity: Yes Visual Continuity: Yes Backlight: Yes Low Impedance (LoZ): Yes NCV: 90-600V AC Auto Ranging: Yes Magnetic Strap Mount: Yes (Strap not included) Test Probe Holder: Yes Flashlight: Yes Low Battery Indicator: Yes Battery Type: 3x1.5v AAA (Included) LCD Display Count: 600 DC Polarity Indication: Yes Leads: Removable GFCI Test: Yes Display: LCD Warranty: 2-Year* Accessories Included: Test Leads TL-757 Document Test Lead Selection Chart Catalogue Instruction Spec Sheet Warranty

    IDEAL VDV Multimedia Cable Tester, Model 33-856

    IDEAL
    Description An all-in-one basic Voice-Data-Video tester for verifying proper wiring of low-voltage and data communications cables. The primary function of the VDV is the wiremap test. The wiremap test visually shows, pin by pin, whether a cable is terminated properly at both ends and if there is continuity from end to end. The VDV can test Data/Ethernet RJ-45 (8P8C), Voice/Phone RJ-11/12(6P6C/6P4C), and Video/coax cables. The LCD visually displays “PASS” or “ERROR” after each test to verify if the cable is terminated correctly. Benefits Voice/Data/Video LCD based wire mapper verifies cable continuity Identifies errors by pin: shorts, opens, miswires, reversals, and split pairs For twisted pair, coax, and phone type cables Designed for Cat 3/5/5e/6/6a cables; RG59/6/ 6 Quad RJ-45; RJ-11/12; and Female F port interfaces Tone generator with 4 selectable tones Includes main remote and 9V battery Technical Information Product Datasheet Operating Instructions Brand: Ideal Cable Composition: Coax Tester Function: Wiremap
