DESCRIPTION
Combines a GFCI Tester and AC Line Splitter in one tool so that you can check outlet wiring, measure voltage, and use your clamp meter to measure current up to 15A. When measuring current you can without breaking the circuit. Clamp around the X1 position for a direct current reading or use the X10 position to display low current readings multiplied by 10. You can also detect faulty wiring in 3-wire receptacles. The lights display 5 wiring faults: Open Ground, Open Neutral, Hot/Ground Reverse, Open Hot, Hot/Neutral Reverse. There is an easy-to-read fault label on both sides for receptacles with ground-up or ground down installation. At the push of a button, you can test GFCI for proper operation. Two very useful and necessary tools for residential and commercial electricians, home inspectors, and DIYers. This product is cETLus listed.

-
Q: How does an AC Line Splitter work?
A: The AC Line Splitter typically has two or more prongs that fit into the power outlet. It divides the current between the appliance or device and a built-in current measurement circuit. This enables you to attach a clamp meter or current meter to the splitter to measure the current without interrupting the power supply.
-
Q: What is a GFCI Outlet Splitter?
A: A GFCI Outlet Splitter is a device that allows you to convert a single Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) outlet into multiple outlets. It provides additional outlets with GFCI protection, ensuring safety from electrical shocks and ground faults.
-
Q: How does a GFCI Outlet Splitter work?
A: The GFCI Outlet Splitter plugs into the existing GFCI outlet, and it offers two or more additional outlets, all with GFCI protection. It allows you to power multiple devices while maintaining the GFCI safety feature for each connected device.
-
Q: What is a 15 Amp AC Line Splitter?
A: A 15 Amp AC Line Splitter is a type of AC line splitter that is designed to handle electrical appliances or devices that draw up to 15 amps of current. It allows you to measure the current of higher-powered equipment safely.
-
Q: Can I use a 15 Amp AC Line Splitter for appliances drawing less than 15 amps?
A: Yes, you can use a 15 Amp AC Line Splitter for appliances drawing less than 15 amps. The splitter can handle lower currents as well, making it versatile for measuring a wide range of electrical devices.
-
Q: Is the 15 Amp AC Line Splitter suitable for residential use?
A: Yes, the 15 Amp AC Line Splitter is commonly used in residential settings to measure the current of various household appliances, tools, and equipment.
