Because of your video and this little tool, I learned that all of my (old) outlets are open-ground and need to be replaced with GFCI outlets until I can get the house rewired. Subscribed. Thank you.🤝

Excellent explanations of the testers abilities along with visual examples for faulty and proper wiring configurations. This tester being a stand-alone and not relying on the outlet power for functionality is a great safety feature and eliminates the dreaded 'I'm not sure scenario'. Video's like this eliminate doubt. You've finalized my decision for an outlet tester.....Thank You Jim.

@@JimMcLaren1950......wonder if there is a multi-meter that has the GFCI and arc fault detection test function?

Good video. At 9:42 in the video, you really should have used a GFCI receptacle instead of a regular receptacle as the GFCI will protect you from a ground fault until you can fix the ground situation in the attic.

Thanks for posting. Good idea using GFCI until I get the ground wire in the attic.

I like my tester. It works great 👍 it will show the voltage ⚡️ and if black and hot is reversed. The green light tells if it's correct

Thank you. I actually bought 2 Klein testers. I did open one with the Fiscars Pro utility knife but didn't cut inside the plastic enough had to recut so the scissors made a better video lol'

Quite a handy tool. Will it show a bad contact with wire when, for example, there is some of the insulation got under the contact screw when the wire was stripped too short?
@JimMcLaren1950
@JimMcLaren1950 10 месяцев назад
No it wont show that. It shows if its properly wired or not.

10:50- .14 seconds is MUCH quicker than half a second. That's 14 hundredths of a second.

Can you use this to trip breakers on regular outlets? Or will it only trip GFCI's?
@JimMcLaren1950
@JimMcLaren1950 Год назад
Very good question. I just tested it out on regular circuut. Didnt trip breaker. Only works on GFCI outlets.

No, it will not trip a regular circuit breaker, there is a tiny resistor in it to simulate a ground fault situation and will only trip on GFCI on that circuit. If you had a GFCI breaker in the electrical panel, then it would trip the GFCI

@@billhandymanbill2775 ohhhh that's good to know. Ty for that insight! I might just invest in Klein's AFCI/GFCI Outlet Tester (#RT310) instead.
