How to Install the VeriSafe AVT Absence of Voltage Tester
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing and configuring the VeriSafe AVT Absence of Voltage Tester to ensure safe operation in electrical systems.
Estimated time: 45m
Tools needed:
Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Multimeter
Supplies needed:
Mounting screws, Terminal connectors, AVT System Cable
- Mount the Isolation Module
Secure the Isolation Module to the DIN rail or surface mount it using screws. Ensure it is level and firmly attached.
- Connect Sensor Leads
Terminate the sensor leads to the corresponding phase conductors and ground connection points. Ensure that leads of the same color are connected to the same conductor and avoid mechanical connections between leads.
- Install the Indicator Module
Insert the Indicator Module into a standard 30 mm knockout in the electrical enclosure. Ensure the notch is positioned on top and that the module is securely mounted.
- Connect the AVT System Cable
Use the included AVT System Cable to connect the Isolation Module to the Indicator Module. Do not use standard Ethernet cables.
- Ground the AVT
Ensure the Isolation Module is solidly grounded to the protective conductor terminal of the enclosure to provide proper indication of absence of voltage.
- Verify Connections
Use a multimeter to check that all connections are secure and that the sensor leads are properly terminated. Ensure there are no loose connections that could lead to false readings.
- Conduct a Functionality Test
After installation, initiate the absence of voltage test by pressing the button on the Indicator Module. Confirm that the green indicator illuminates, indicating the absence of voltage.
