instruction manual:
Warning! Warns of potential danger,
comply with the instruction manuals.
Caution! Dangerous voltage.
danger of electrical shock.
Continuous double or reinforced
insulation complies to IEC 536, Class II
Symbol of conformity, confirms conformity
with relevant EU directives. The instrument
complies with the EMC Directive (89/336/EEC)
specifically standards EN 50081-1 and EN 50082-1,
as well as the Low Voltage Directive (73/23/EEC)
described in the standard EN 61010-1.
Instruction:
The contact-free voltage tester PL107N has
been developed for voltage testing on insulated
cables and conductors. For testing, no electrical
connection to UUT is required. A second
connection, e.g.to neutral or ground is not
necessary.
The voltage tester PL107N does not require
maintenance. It is equipped with protective
insulation. Power is supplied by means of two 1.5V
AAA batteries 1.5V IEC LR03.

1. Test probe
2. LED for voltage indication
3. Battery case cover
4. Clip
5. Switch
Danger! In order to avoid the danger of
electrical shock, it is important that proper
saftey measures are respected when working with
voltages exceeding 120V (60V) DC or 50V (25V)
r.m.s. AC. These voltages represent internationally
the limits of max. contact voltage.
Warning! The voltage tester is appropriate
for AC voltages between 90V and 1000V AC.
Aperfect instrument function is only ensured within
a temperature range of --10 up to 50˚C >45%
humidity.

Warning! The signal during the voltage test
does not provide any indication of the type
and level of voltage present. In case of doubt,
measure the voltage by using a test instrument with
display indication.
The voltage tester is delivered with installed
batteries. The voltage tester indicates voltages from
50V to 600V AC.
Operation
Always test the unit on a known source to check the
unit for correct operation.
Press the test switch the LED will light continuously.
Hold the test switch down at the same time touch
the circuit under test with the test probe tip.
When voltageis detected the LED will flash and the
buzzer sound.
Low Battery Indication
When the battery voltage drops below 2V, the LED
will not light when the test switch is pressed

Application examples:
Maintenance
As long as the instructions in the operating
manual are adhered to, no special maintenance
is required.
Cleaning
Disconnect the instrument from all circuits. Using a
damp cloth wipe the instrument surface by applying
