![]() Voltage and Frequency are accurate to within 1% and Impedance and Voltage Drop are good to 5%. You can also purchase separate Ground Continuity, Isolated Ground and Alligator Clip connectors. Since there are only 4 buttons, the device is extremely simple to control and configure. By measuring at different points in the branch circuit, you can pinpoint the location of the high resistance connection.Īll of these tests are done simply by plugging in the unit with the included 12″ IEC power cord and controlling the analyzer with the simple navigation controls. ![]() By measuring and comparing the resistance of the hot and neutral conductors, you will see a resistance fault as a difference between what should be two very similar resistance readings. You can detect possible glowing contacts and locate series arcing points with the 61-165 SureTest, which has the ability to measure the resistance of the Hot, Neutral and Ground. Ideal Industries notes that AFCI devices cannot detect a glowing contact, which is a high resistance fault in either the hot or neutral conductor unless it is arcing. The Model 61-165 can also test GFCI devices at 6mA and 30 mA per the UL guidelines for GFCI testers. This simulated arc meets the present UL guidelines for AFCI testers. The Models 61-165 and 61-059 tests the branch circuit performance of the AFCI by simulating an arc fault between hot and neutral. The second function is that it can test the performance of AFCI/GFCI protection from different points on the branch circuit. The Available Short Circuit Current, and the resistance of each conductor Hot, Neutral, and Ground are also measured and displayed. With its patented technology, it can perform this test even if there are loads on the circuit, and without tripping a breaker or interrupting the load. The SureTest Circuit Analyzer calculates Voltage Drop and Percent of Voltage drop at 12, 15, and 20 amp loads in a matter of seconds. ![]() First, it can test the physical structure of the branch circuit. The IDEAL SureTest Circuit Analyzer 61-165 has two functions.
