Hot Stick Tester

Easy to apply tester is used for testing live line tools and switching rods. Can be used for “in service” testing to OSHA 1910.269. A selector switch is used for wet or dry test and a dual range scale which gives the operator leakage current values in microamps. Utilising a 2500 volt output the meter is calibrated to indicate the leakage values that would be present if 75kVAC were applied to a 300mm section of fibreglass pole for the wet test and 100kVAC per 300mm for the dry test.  The tester is designed to protect the operator during use. Comes complete with padded carrying case and a testing bar which is provided to ensure the tester is working correctly. Battery Life – estimate 6 hours of continuous testing at 70 degrees.
