Description
The VDAO40P is an analog voltage detector designed for use in high-voltage electrical systems. It provides both proximity and direct contact voltage detection for overhead and underground applications, making it versatile for utility, industrial, and field service work. Its easy-to-read analog scale and rugged construction suit it for demanding environments where accurate and reliable voltage detection is critical.
Includes:
- VDAO40P Analog Voltage Detector main unit
- Straight probe
- Hook probe
- Universal/grip-all adapter
- User manual
- Padded carrying case for storage and transport
- One-year warranty documentation
Features:
- Detects voltages from 0 to 40kV line-to-ground (0–69kV phase-to-phase), supporting a wide range of distribution and sub-transmission systems.
- Dual application: usable in both proximity and direct contact modes for overhead and underground systems, increasing jobsite flexibility.
- Easy-to-read analog display allows for quick determination of voltage presence and approximate value even under challenging conditions.
- Capable of detecting voltage from the ground on bare overhead lines when hand-held, enhancing operator safety.
- Can test secondary voltage on bare or insulated cables, supporting routine maintenance and troubleshooting tasks.
- 5-position selector switch calibrated for height above ground to compensate for capacitive coupling effects, ensuring accurate readings in different working configurations.
- Shielded design to minimize stray-field interference, improving measurement reliability.
- Overload protection up to 500kV for enhanced operator safety and instrument durability.
- Rugged, water-resistant construction to withstand harsh field environments.
