Stray Voltage Detector

The Stray Voltage Detector , model LV-S-5, is used to detect low stray voltage which may be present within electrically conductive sources. The Detector operates by holding it with a bare or gloved hand, or by using the optional Extension Handle, creating a "virtual ground" and directly contacting the metal tip of the Detector to the potentially energized source.

Three optional accessories are available for the LV-S-5. The Detector Tester supplies a low voltage AC signal for testing the LV-S-5 before and after use. The Extension Handle extends the reach of the LV-S-5, allowing the Tester to test equipment on the ground or hard to reach locations. The Ground Shield is used in areas where high voltage lines or other energized conductors are present.


Stray Voltage Detector Features

  • Low threshold voltage sensing design picks up voltages from 5 VAC to 600 VAC with direct contact and above 600 VAC at a distance
  • Ultra bright, long-lasting red LED indicates when voltage is present
  • Detector is always on, ready to use, and operates on two AAA alkaline batteries
  • Rugged, utility-grade design is waterproof
  • Optional Detector Tester supplies a low voltage AC signal for testing before and after use
  • Optional Extension Handle extends the Detector's reach for testing equipment on or near the ground or other hard to reach locations
  • Optional Ground Shield used in areas where energized conductors are present and interfere with normal voltage tests
  • Optional rugged carrying bag holds one LV-S-5 Detector and one Tester
