Grace Engineering Voltage Test Station

Gracepoint Test Centre

Grace Engineered Products, Inc. expands its portfolio of permanent electrical safety devices (PESD) by providing a purpose-built, safety-by-design application for facilities seeking to enhance their electrical safety programs. The SafeSide PESD product line includes voltage indicators, voltage portals, IR Viewing Windows, and a new combo unit with the Voltage Test Station (VTS) that allows workers to safely and efficiently validate electrical energy from outside the enclosure.

The VTS enhances productivity, minimizes the risk of arc flash, and reduces downtime during lockout/tagout (LOTO) procedures. Equipped with a voltage indicator and test points, the VTS confidently verifies electrical energy without losing the integrity of the NEMA rating on your enclosures. The voltage indicator displays the change-of-state voltage that can then be verified with a standard voltmeter through the test-point unit.

Feature include the following:

•    allows workers to quickly and safely validate zero electrical energy from outside the electrical enclosure.
•    combines a voltage indicator and test points to confidently verify zero electrical energy.
•    provides a safer and more productive method of performing LOTO, while exceeding NFPA 70E and meeting the OSHA energy isolation principle.
•    lockable housings add an additional layer of protection by allowing authorized personnel to safely access the test points
•    provides visibility of voltage using flashing (R-3W/2) and non flashing (R-3W-SR) LEDs to visually verify zero electrical energy without any exposure to voltage inside the electrical panel.
•    contains four test point jacks that can measure AC or DC voltages. Using facility safety procedures, insert insulated meter probes with .080” tips into any two test point jacks to take a voltage reading. The meter must be rated to withstand the maximum applied AC or DC voltage and have a typical 10 MΩ input impedance.
