This premium test kit by Klein Tools includes a non-contact voltage tester and a GFCI receptacle tester. The kit comes with (1) voltage tester, (1) GFCI receptacle tester, and (2) NCVT1XT AAA batteries.
Key Features:
- The voltage tester can non-contact detect 70 to 1000V AC in various electrical components like cables, cords, circuit breakers, etc. It has an IP67 rating for dust and water resistance and can withstand a 9.8 - Foot (3 m) drop.
- The volt pen has a high - intensity bright green LED to show it's powered on. When voltage is detected, a bright red LED lights up and an audible tone sounds.
- It has a CAT IV 1000V safety rating, a low - battery indicator, and easy access to the battery compartment.
- The GFCI tester can spot the most common wiring issues in standard and GFCI receptacles, such as open ground, reverse polarity, etc. It has a CAT II 300V safety rating, works on GFCI outlets, and confirms the operation of the ground fault protective device.
- Note that the NCV tester isn't recommended for testing tamper - resistant outlets. Instead, use Cat. Nos. NCVT - 2P or NCVT - 3P in low - voltage mode.

Using the Klein Non - Contact Voltage and GFCI Receptacle Testing Kit is easy. For the non - contact voltage tester, just turn it on by checking if the bright green LED lights up. Then, bring it close to the cables, cords, or other electrical components you want to test. If there's 70 to 1000V AC voltage, the red LED will light up and you'll hear an audible tone.
When using the GFCI receptacle tester, plug it into the outlet. It will quickly detect common wiring problems like open ground, reverse polarity, etc.
Some important notes: Don't use the NCV tester on tamper - resistant outlets. Instead, use Cat. Nos. NCVT - 2P or NCVT - 3P in low - voltage mode.
For maintenance, keep the testers in a dry place. Check the low - battery indicator regularly. When the battery is low, replace the AAA batteries in the NCVT1XT tester. The tester's IP67 rating means it's dustproof and waterproof, but try to avoid unnecessary exposure to extreme conditions. And always follow the safety standards (CAT IV 1000V for the voltage tester and CAT II 300V for the GFCI tester) when using the kit.
