Mitchell AC Hotstick Voltage Detector
The Mitchell Instrument MITHD311 is a popular non-contact voltage detector kit designed to detect the presence of voltage without contact. This proximity testing circuitry is designed for indoor or outdoor use. The universal spline on the hotstick is compatible with all standard hot stick accessories as well as a shotgun adapter for use with clampsticks. The kit includes the detector, four ft. hotstick, and carrying bag.
- Designed to detect presence of high voltage without direct physical contact
- An eight or ten position rotary switch selects detection range; as sensor is moved closer to energized conductor, sensor head picks up radiated electric field; once threshold is reached, buzzer sounds and bright red warning light flashes
- For indoor or outdoor use
- Wide range of detection...finds 80V to 275kV; just one instrument fits all applications
- Lightweight, minimizes sway at end of longer hot sticks
- Selected voltage is detected approximately 10 in. away from voltage source; greater detection distances can be obtained at lower voltage positions on switch
- Large bright red warning light (two LEDs)
- Loud piezo buzzer
- Rotary selector switch with following settings: OFF | TEST | 240V | 4.2kV | 35kV | 69kV | 115kV | 230kV | 345kV| 500kV
- Battery compartment/handle holds (3) "C" batteries
- Universal spline on end for connection to any standard hotstick; Included adapter allows use with shotgun clamp-sticks
