INTRODUCTION
The CA10 is a special-purpose electrical tester designed to quickly identify and
locate single faults in low-voltage (120VAC) distribution lines (branch circuits).
It can also test the reliability and response time of GFCIs (ground fault circuit
interrupters) and RCDs (residual current devices) and check the wiring of outlet
sockets. The instrument's ease of use, versatility and accuracy make it the ideal
electrician's tool for preventing shocks, sparks, electrical fires, equipment
damage and poor equipment performance.
