Power Testing A Ground - Power Probe BASIC Instruction Manual

Power Probe Basic

POWER TESTING A GROUND

First be sure the ground feed you are testing is really a ground feed.
Do NOT activate electronic control circuits or drivers with 12 volts
unless they are designed for 12 volts.
Power Testing a Ground Feed, that uses 20 to 18 gauge wires is easy.
You can determine if the ground feed is good or faulty by simply
probing it with the probe tip and apply power by pressing the power
switch.
If the circuit breaker trips, and NO RED LED lights, the ground feed can
be considered a good ground. If the RED LED lights, the ground feed
is faulty. It's that simple.
