How It Works
Check your outlet in 3 simple steps
Plug it in
Plug the tester into your outlet and compare the indicator lights with the guide shown on the device. This helps you confirm whether the outlet is wired correctly and properly grounded before setting up your grounding tools.
What the lights mean:
The Outlet Grounding Tester uses three indicator lights to help you check whether an outlet is wired correctly and properly grounded. Different light combinations can indicate a correct setup or common wiring issues such as a missing ground or reversed wiring.
Check the result
Use the printed guide on the front of the tester to compare the lights that appear when you plug it in. If the result does not show Correct, we recommend not using that outlet for grounding products until it has been reviewed by a qualified professional.
- Correct: The outlet is properly grounded.
- Missing Earth / Open Ground: No proper ground connection.
- Live Earth Reverse: Wiring may be reversed.
- Live Neutral Reverse: Outlet may be wired incorrectly.
- Missing Neutral: Outlet may not be wired properly.
