To increase accuracy and speed, the VPC-12 turns on when a complete circuit is sensed, automatically selects AC or DC voltage or continuity mode, and autos-off when removed from a circuit. Measuring under 6 inches long and weighing less than half a pound, this rugged, compact design allows for easy one-handed use. With an operating battery life of 300 hours and operating temperature ranging from 41 degrees F to 140 degrees F, these tools are just as rugged and reliable as they are safe. A vibrating alert indicates the presence of continuity as well as dangerous voltage levels, in additional to the visual and audible alerts mentioned above. This is especially helpful when wearing thick PPE gloves and working in a noisy environment. Also, the VPC-12 includes VolTec™ Non-contact Voltage Detection, an added level of safety when working with high voltage levels in an industrial setting. Finally, a built-in light makes working in dimly-lit areas possible with the VPC-12.

You can quickly measure ac and dc voltage in circuitry and its components including outlets, light fixtures, batteries and extension cords as well as test the continuity of fuses, light bulbs and electrical connections. In addition to full range polarity detection, it signals continuity and voltage with visual and audible alerts. On its face, seven LED indicators clearly differentiate between key voltage levels: 24, 120, 208, 240, 277, 480, 600 V ac; and 6, 12, 24, 36, 48,110, 220 V dc.
