Meter Operation

13

Non-Contact Voltage Sensing

First, rotate the function key to the NCV position. Place the sensing point marked

with NCV close to an AC outlet (or any AC conductor such as light switches or

power cords) and scan back and forth across the outlet. The meter beeps On/Off

continuously and the Red NCV LED above the display flashes if the sensing antenna

detects live voltage greater than 40V AC (50 -60 Hz). Voltages with frequencies

higher than 60Hz or electrostatic charges may also be detected by the NCV sensing

antenna. To differentiate between hot and neutral in an outlet, place the NCV tab

directly next to each slot in the outlet. The tone (buzzer) will sound over the slot

that is energized and not on the neutral slot. Either test lead can also be used to

differentiate between the hot and neutral. Plug the red or black test lead into the

V input jack on the meter. With the function switch in the NCV position, insert the

probe end of just one probe into the slots on the outlet. The meter will beep and the

Red LED will flash when a hot conductor is contacted.

NOTE: While the NCV is a helpful function, it is ALWAYS

RECOMMENDED that the operator verify that any electrical conductor is

completely de-energized and that no voltage is present by measuring

for voltage AND CONFIRMING THAT NO VOLTAGE IS PRESENT and that

all applicable PPE and lock out tag out procedures be followed before

attempting any work on ANY electrical distribution system.

Note: The 61-327 is only rated to 600V AC or DC MAX
