Operation - Greenlee 6710 Instruction Manual

OPERATION

This tester has a built-in load; therefore, the operation time is specified as follows:
Voltage Level
Note: The recovery time depends on the ambient temperature. Higher ambient temperatures require longer
recovery times.
To Locate a Hot Conductor (AC Circuits Only)
1. Touch the fixed probe of the tester to the terminal or conductor.
Note: Do not allow the removable probe to contact anything.
2. Listen for tone. See the Hot Conductor Locator Table to determine whether the fixed probe is on a hot
conductor.
To Check for Continuity or To Measure Voltage (AC or a DC circuits)
1. Touch one probe tip to either terminal or conductor; touch the other probe tip to the other terminal or
conductor.
Note: In order to prevent tripping a GFCI when measuring voltage between Hot and Ground, first measure
between Hot and Neutral. Then immediately measure between Hot and Ground.
2. Read the display and listen for tone. See the Continuity Check and Voltage Measurement Table to
determine whether the fixed probe is on a hot conductor.
