LED Indications
Three sets of LED indicators are provided on the handheld device for use in troubleshooting branch circuit issues. These
three indications give information regarding current ("AMPS"), ground fault level ("GF"), and arc fault level ("AF").
Current ("AMPS")
1.
The full scale current for this LED indication is 20+A.
2.
LED indicators do not increase by uniform intervals.
3.
The 5 A point is marked on handheld device for reference.
Ground Fault ("GF")
1.
The full scale current for this LED indication is 50+ mA.
Arc Fault ("AF")
1.
This LED indication does not display in reference to current level but rather in severity of events, with a full scale
reading (red LED) representing an event that is very likely to cause an AFCI device to trip.
2.
Partial readings (yellow LEDs) may or may not be suspect issues to evaluate.
3.
Transitional events, i.e. turning on an appliance, are likely to register as some low level on the Arc Fault scale.
