Voltage tester, tick-tracer, glow-tip, non-contact voltage tester... whatever. Same thing. I call it a voltage sniffer, but the technical name for this device is a capacitive voltage sensor. That's a ...

The circuit was designed to provide a means for measuring the operating voltage of zener diodes before applying on a circuit. Zener Diode – a special kind of diode that permits the flow of current in ...

Proper safety procedures are critical when testing high-voltage systems. As the following examples prove, mistakes happen. However, when the safety of you and your coworkers is at stake, neglecting ...

Panduit Corp. has released its VeriSafe - Absence-of-Voltage Tester. The tester is designed to minimize risk of electrical hazards by verifying the absence of voltage before equipment is accessed, ...

Klein Tools introduces the Non-Contact Voltage Tester with Laser Distance Meter (Cat. No. NCVT-6), which detects the presence of AC voltage and measures distances up to 66 ft – all in one lightweight, ...

Tick tracer. Glow meter. Sniffer. They go by many names, but capacitive voltage sensors are all designed to do one thing: detect the presence of voltage in a wire or piece of equipment without ...

The circuit has been constructed to test and measure the voltage rating of zener diodes. To be able to test the voltage rating of a zener diode up to 50 VDC, a small transformer and a single 555 timer ...
