Il Triplett Et200 combina un tester Gfci e uno splitter di linea CA in un unico strumento, molto utile e necessario per elettricisti residenziali e commerciali, ispettori domestici e fai-da-te. Controlla il cablaggio della presa, misura la tensione e utilizza la pinza amperometrica per misurare la corrente fino a 15 A senza interrompere il circuito. Usa semplicemente una pinza amperometrica attorno alla posizione X1 per una lettura di corrente continua o usa la posizione X10 per visualizzare letture di corrente bassa moltiplicate per 10. Puoi anche rilevare cavi difettosi nelle prese a 3 fili. Le luci integrate visualizzano 5 errori di cablaggio tra cui terra aperta, neutro aperto, inversione di caldo/massa, caldo aperto e inversione di caldo/neutro. C'è un'etichetta di errore di facile lettura su ogni lato, utile per prese con installazione a massa verso l'alto o verso il basso. Con la semplice pressione di un pulsante, puoi testare le prese Gfci per il corretto funzionamento.

Review: Klein Tools RT200, Extech ET10, Triplett 9610, and Gardner Bender GFI-3501 GFCI Receptacle Outlet Testers
This comparative review is for: - Triplett 9610 "Plug-Bug 2" GFCI Receptacle Tester - Gardner Bender GFI-3501 Outlet and GFCI Tester - Klein Tools RT200 GFCI Receptacle (Outlet) Tester - Extech Instruments ET 10 GFCI Receptacle Tester OVERVIEW: ----------- All 4 can be used to look for common faulty wiring in common U.S. household outlets and GFCI outlets, as well as test if GFCI functionality is operable, aka it will trip and cut things off when called on to do so. All except the Gardner Bender have the mini-LED for GFCI testing to confirm the test button made contact, though that alone shouldn't be a deal breaker I would think. All 4 work. Let's find a way to help choose one over the other. (1) INSTRUCTIONS: ------------------- Klein's Instructions: The Klein's instructions are excellent, probably the best. However, after reading the others instructions Klein's instructions could further benefit from much more detail on cautions/warnings/limits and useful commentary. - EASY-TO-READ details broken out by 2 USAGE SCENARIOS and done STEP-BY-STEP flow chart style. - MINI DATA SHEET spec info you normally don't expect, and some would argue need, from such a cheap tool. I liked it's inclusion. - Printed on quality multiple page folded white cardboard pamphlet, certainly the nicest, most durable presentation, folks might actually keep it. Its contents and its look belies a more PROFESSIONAL IMPRESSION of the product. - One negative is I think is the THINNESS OF THE CAUTIONS/WARNINGS as is obvious when you read the Triplett instructions (See below). Triplett instructions: - CAUTIONS/WARNINGS ARE THE MOST DETAILED, most useful. - The actual INSTRUCTIONS ARE THE WEAKEST and hardest to read of the three, almost no granularity or flow to the step by step. - The instructions and warnings were fitted into one side of a very thin sheet of paper the size of an index card. SCREAMS CHEAP. But again, the Cautions/Warnings are the best. Extech instructions: - The instructions are better than the Triplett's, though less detailed and usable than Klein's. - The Cautions/Warnings/Limits are perhaps tied with Klein's, though significantly less detailed and usable than Triplett's. - One-half of a cardboard backing the size of an index card is what you get for instructions and/or warnings. Gardner Bender instructions: - I like the separating of regular outlet and GFCI outlet testing instructions for the layman. - I like that there are some environmental engineering specs noted. - I like the list of what products like this don't do, the suggestions to use a qualified electrician to fix issues, the reminder to shut the power off to the outlet if you are going to work on it, and other safety advice. - The instructions are on glossy black&white and show some care. Not quite the attention to detail for instructions that Klein showed, but certainly adequate and quality enough not to detract from the product impression. If this is important to you, I give Klein, and in second place Gardner Bender, the edge here. (2) BUILD QUALITY, FIT & FINISH: -------------------------------- The plug PRONGS for all of them don't wiggle, their ground prongs are fully formed, not the cheap looking u-style some have, and they all push into sockets easily. The CASES of all except the Gardner Bender are almost exactly alike except the Klein case appears better manufactured, next best manufactured was the Extech, and finally the Triplett. The pieces fit together best and more flush with the Klein than the other two, there are less gaps between the plastic pieces and fewer surface imperfections. The Gardner Bender CASE is different than the others and its build quality is excellent, at least on par with the Klein, it looks the least cheap of the four. The Gardner Bender instructions announce that the unit is double insulated, "the tester is protected throughout by double insulation or reinforced insulation". I don't know how this compares to the other three. I give the Gardner Bender and the Klein the edge here. (3) ON-METER LEGEND LEGIBILITY: --------------------------------- The text describing the meaning of the LEDs is easiest to read on the Gardner Bender, Klein, and Extech. The colored circles that match to the text are easiest to read on the Extech, next is the Triplett, then the Klein, then the Gardner Bender. On none of them is the text or colored circles too difficult to make out, though the text on the Triplett is pretty bad. I give Exatech the edge here. (4) TRYING TO GET PEOPLE TO READ INSTRUCTIONS: --------------------------------------------------- The Gardner Bender says in easy to see white text on black, and Triplett says in big bold black text on white on the products to read instructions before using. On the Klein and the Extech the same warning is near invisible molded into the case in the same color as the case. I give Gardner Bender and Triplett the edge here. SUMMARY: ---------- Overall I choose the Gardner Bender or Klein due to the quality of the instructions and a sense that someone cared more about their manufacture. They all appear to work and none of us are going to test a random sampling of 100 of them nor probably break them open to examine them, so we'll probably never be able to estimate their true comparative durability. If any of the manufacturers wish to comment here on having addressed any issues raised here I will adjust the review accordingly. TRIPLETT'S PUBLISHED "CAUTIONS/WARNINGS": --------------------------------------------- To help users of all these kinds of outlet testers I've included here Triplett's good list of cautions/warnings as they may prove informative to the casual user of most of these type of outlet testers. - To help avoid erroneous readings, all appliances and equipment must be unplugged/disconnected from the circuit being tested. - Do not press the TEST button on (this meter) for more than 6 seconds. Now this is interesting as pressing it for 7 seconds is one of the steps on the Klein Tools test instructions. Note: Does it go into why you shouldn't press it for 7 seconds? Why of course not :). - This tester does not indicate the quality of a ground connection. - This tester may not indicate the presence of a hot wire. That is, it is possible for a hot wire to be present when none of the indicators light. - This tester will not accurately indicate a combination of wiring problems. - This tester will not test GFCI's installed on 2 wire (non-grounded) electrical circuits. - This tester does not perform a comprehensive test. It only checks for probable common improper wiring conditions. - 120 VAC is dangerous and may cause user injury of death. Use all appropriate cautions. Note: Does it then go into appropriate cautions? Why of course not :). - Use only on 110 to 125 VAC receptacles. - GFCI receptacle or GFCI branch circuit protector must be installed in accordance with the manufactures specifications. - All corrective action must be made by qualified electrician. Note: Amen. SOME ADDITIONAL EXTECH'S PUBLISHED "CAUTIONS/WARNINGS" THAT MAY APPLY TO YOUR MANUFACTURER'S UNIT (reworded): ------------------------------------------- I'll add these additional ones from the Extech instructions. - If the circuit doesn't trip after hitting the GFCI button, either the GFCI is operable but the wiring is incorrect, or the wiring is correct and the GFCI is inoperable. - Tester will not indicate 2 hot wires in a circuit. - Tester will not indicate reversal of ground or neutral conductors. ADDITIONAL GARDNER BENDER PUBLISHED "CAUTIONS/WARNINGS" THAT MAY APPLY TO YOUR MANUFACTURER'S UNIT (reworded): ------------------------------------------- I'll add this additional one from the Gardner Bender instructions. - The more the other appliances or equipment on the circuit are unplugged the less chance there is for an erroneous reading.

Does what I bought it for
Ok, these devices are not rocket science. If all you want to do is read AC current, you could easily separate the two wires in an AC extension cord and clamp your clamp current meter around one of the lines. This would give you exactly the same result. Want “times 10”? loop one of the lines 10 times, and then clamp around that loop to read 10 times the current. But the ET100 will also give you indications that your wall outlet is wired correctly or not. It also has the ability to check your outlets GFCI breaker. For the price, this is a handy tool to have in your box if you want to measure AC current or quickly check an outlet. It seems durable and well built, but I just recently received it so I can not comment on long term durability

It works great, worth the money
This Splitter and GFCI Outlet / Receptacle Tester works great. My only complaint is its length, it's just a little too long.

Very Convenient and accurate
I have a Kline and Southwire clamp meter and they both fit. Used it today to show a resident his vaccum cleaner is pulling to many AMPS.

Works great
This works great. I too was worried about the size of the 1x area being too small for my amp meter to fit into it. I have two amp meters and they both work fine. This is an inexpensive tool and for the average person will work fine. It feels and looks great. Most typical amp meters will fit both the 1x and the 10 x . It allows you to read amps, check ground fault ,location for volt readings and any polarity issues. I took a chance with it. Knew that I could always return it for a refund. It has worked fine for me and went ahead and ordered a second one for a another electrician that doesn't have one. Glad I got this.

Good 2 in 1
The tester part reduces the size of the 1st hole and my clamp meter doesn't fit it.

A lot better than Klein's version
At least this one DOES read actual amperage. Compared to (2) of Klein's that I ordered and returned in the past.

Works As Advertised
I like that a GFCI/circuit tester and line splitter are combined in this one tool, even if it is a bit longer over all. I had just bought a new clamp meter to test the amps being drawn by a pump in our cottage's septic system. This tool worked flawlessly. I plugged it into the receptacle beside the timer and septic tank, and got my reading without having to split the circuit somewhere between the main panel and the plug-in point. A line splitter is really a must-have tool if you use a clamp-on meter. This one is well made and conveniently includes the GFCI/circuit tester feature.

Practicidad y calidad!
Excelente, para mi estar abriendo los circuitos y tomar lecturas con el ampermetro. Además de checar que los contactos estén correctamente olarizadis, muy buena calidad y precio!

X1 Clamp-on Ammeter port is to small
The GFCI test facility is excellent. The X1 Clamp-on Ammeter port needs to be the same size as the X10 to accommodate older style instruments.

Calidad y precio
Me gusta que tiene 2 espacios el primero para amperaje normal y es segundo para leer amperajes muy bajos
