VeriSafe Absence of Voltage Tester
Apr 15, 2020
When servicing electrical equipment, workers must comply with safety regulations that require a voltage verification test to validate the absence of voltage. This process includes a number of stages that can be complex and time-consuming when using hand-held portable test instruments.
The VeriSafe Absence of Voltage Tester from Panduit simplifies this process by automating the voltage verification process.
Once installed, a simple push of a button enables workers to verify the absence of voltage and see an active indication when the absence of voltage is confirmed. This provides a new and innovative way to safely, reliably, and efficiently verify the absence of voltage before accessing potentially dangerous electrical equipment.
By automating this process, the VeriSafe Absence of Voltage Tester:
• Reduces the risk of exposure of electrical hazards for improved worker safety
• Reduces testing procedure time and complexity to improve productivity
• Supports compliance when used to verify the electrical lockout/tagout process as described in NFPA 70E
The VeriSafe Absence of Voltage Tester minimizes risk by verifying the absence of voltage before equipment is accessed, making it easier for workers to verify an electrically safe work condition has been established in a fraction of the time compared to using hand-held portable test instruments.
