Dual-Range Voltage Detection

The Ideal Industries 61-657 is a non-contact voltage tester built for electricians and technicians who need to verify live conductors without direct contact. It senses alternating current across two distinct ranges, covering low-voltage control circuits and standard mains wiring in a single tool.

Rugged Construction With Integrated Light

The tester carries a CAT IV 1000V AC safety rating and an industrial housing rated dust-tight and waterproof to one metre for thirty minutes. It survives drops from 6.5 ft, while a tip-mounted LED flashlight operates independently to illuminate dim junction boxes or panels.

12 V Low-Range Threshold

The defining specification is the 12 V AC low-range sensitivity, which allows detection of doorbell transformers, thermostat wiring and irrigation systems that single-range testers miss. Buyers who only need 50 V to 1000 V AC detection should consider a simpler model.
