Voltage tester MODECO MN-17-190 190 mm probe length, non-contact indication

MODECO MN-17-190 is a compact voltage tester with a 190 mm probe length designed for detecting the presence of AC voltage. The hand-held indicator offers both non-contact detection and direct probe-based checks, allowing quick verification of live conductors in cables, sockets and electrical installations. Its small form factor and straightforward operation make it suitable for electricians and DIY users who need to confirm whether circuits are energized before maintenance or troubleshooting.

Advantages

The device combines non-contact voltage indication with a probe function, enabling flexible testing methods without complex setup. A 190 mm probe provides extended reach for accessing recessed terminals or connectors while maintaining compact portability. The tester’s operation is simple and fast, reducing the time needed to identify live conductors and supporting routine safety checks prior to work on electrical equipment.

Suitable for

• Quick verification of live conductors in household and commercial wiring
• Testing outlets, switches and junctions for voltage presence
• Non-contact checks on insulated wires and exposed terminals
• Use by electricians during installation, inspection and maintenance
• DIY troubleshooting and safety checks before electrical work

Key specifications

• Probe length: 190 mm for access to recessed or hard-to-reach points
• Detection type: non-contact voltage indication plus probe-based testing
• Form factor: compact hand-held design for one-handed operation
• Use environment: designed for testing AC voltage in typical household and commercial systems

How to use

Before testing, ensure the tester is in working condition according to the manufacturer’s basic instructions and check any required batteries or power indicators. For non-contact detection, bring the tester’s sensing end close to the insulated conductor or outlet; observe the indicator (visual and/or audible) to determine the presence of AC voltage. For probe-based testing, carefully insert the probe tip into the contact point or touch the exposed conductor while holding the insulated handle, then observe the device indication. Always follow safe working distances and avoid contact with live parts beyond what is required for the probe check.

Usage recommendations

Use the MODECO MN-17-190 as a preliminary check to identify live conductors; it is intended to assist safety procedures but should not replace full lockout-tagout or detailed testing with calibrated instruments when precise measurements or complete isolation verification are required.
