Wiring Inspector Tester
amprobe.com
Designed for use in residential and light commercial environments
The INSP-3, wiring inspector is a rugged tester designed to verify building
wiring compliance to electrical code, especially voltage drop under load.
Identify issues with splices, connections, and conductor quality, crucial to
the safety and performance of the electrical system.
Features
-
Testing efficiency – relevant test data (voltage, voltage drop, hot and neutral voltage drop, voltage with load, ground impedance) is presented on a single large display to save operator time
-
Verifies if wiring is tested for load-carrying ability that it meets electrical code recommendations for voltage drop under load
-
Meter detects faulty wiring in need of repair without removing outlet cover plates or panel covers
– Faulty splices and connections
– Incorrect wiring
– Undersized wiring
– Faulty GFCIs
– Faulty or incorrectly wired AFCIs
– Incorrect line voltage
– Poor ground quality
– Fault currents -
User selectable 0, 10,15, and 20 amps load to verify the performance of the electrical system
-
Incorrect wiring or voltage drop test failure is clearly indicated by flashing screen
-
Will not trip circuit breakers or blow fuses during the test
-
Tests GFCI and AFCI operations
-
Check ground quality for safety and ability to support sensitive electronic equipment
