WARNING:
GB
This tool is not a measuring device and should
not be used as a substitute for a voltmeter.
WARNING:
The LED or Live Wire Detection symbol on the
display is just an indicator and in some situations
the voltage detection option may not accurately
indicate the presence of voltage in a wall in the
event of internal device failure or improper operation,
and therefore should not be solely relied upon for
identification of the presence of hazardous voltages.
Other evidence, such as construction blueprints or
visual identification of wiring or conduit entry points
should also be utilized.
Always follow proper safety practices and use
a separate detection method to verify a de-energized
condition prior to commencing work.
WARNING:
Always turn off AC power when working near wiring.
WARNING:
Shielded wires or wires in metal conduits, casings,
metalized walls, or thick, dense walls may not be
detected.
CAUTION:
Use personal protective equipment. Always wear
eye protection. Depending on the work conditions,
wearing protective equipment such as a dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, and hearing
protection will reduce the risk of personal injury.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
Ensure proper detection of live wires. Always hold the Stud
Sensor STHT77587/STHT77588 in the handle area only. Grasp
between fingers and thumb while making contact with your palm
(Figure ).
