Operating Instructions

WARNING: Risk of electrocution. High-voltage circuits, both AC and DC, are very

dangerous and should be measured with great care.

NOTE: On some low AC and DC voltage ranges, with the test leads not connected to a

device, the display may show a random, changing reading. This is normal and is caused

by the high-input sensitivity. The reading will stabilize and give a proper measurement

when connected to a circuit.

NON-CONTACT AC VOLTAGE DETECTOR

The EX310 can detect the presence of AC voltage (from 100 to 600VAC) simply by being

held very near to a voltage source.

WARNING: Test the AC voltage detector on a known live circuit before each use.

WARNING: Before using the meter in the AC Voltage Detector mode, verify that the battery

is fresh by confirming characters appear on the LCD when the function dial is turned to any

position. Do not attempt to use the meter as an AC Voltage Detector if the battery is weak

or bad.

NON-CONTACT VOLTAGE (NCV)

The NCV function works on any rotary switch position.

1. Test the detector on a known live circuit before use.

2. Press and hold the NCV button for the duration of the

test. The meter will beep once when the button is pushed.

3. Hold the top of the meter very close to the voltage source

as shown.

4. If voltage is present, the rim of the LCD display will flash

a bright orange and an audible warning will sound.

AC VOLTAGE MEASUREMENTS

WARNING: Risk of Electrocution. The probe tips may

not be long enough to contact the live parts inside some

240V outlets for appliances because the contacts are

recessed deep in the outlets. As a result, the reading may

show 0 volts when the outlet actually has voltage on it.

Make sure the probe tips are touching the metal contacts

inside the outlet before assuming that no voltage is

present.

CAUTION: Do not measure AC voltages if a motor on

the circuit is being switched ON or OFF. Large voltage

surges may occur that can damage the meter.

1. Set the function switch to the 600 VAC position.

2. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the

negative COM jack. Insert red test lead banana

plug into the positive Vjack.

3. Touch the black test probe tip to the neutral side of the circuit.

4. Touch the red test probe tip to the “hot” side of circuit.

5. Read the voltage in the display.

DC VOLTAGE MEASUREMENTS

CAUTION: Do not measure DC voltages if a motor on the circuit is being switched ON or

OFF. Large voltage surges may occur that can damage the meter.

1. Set the function switch to the highest VDC position.

2. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the

negative COM jack.

Insert the red test lead banana plug into the

positive Vjack.

3. Touch the black test probe tip to the negative side

of the circuit. Touch the red test probe tip to the

positive side of the circuit.

4. Read the voltage in the display. Move the function

switch to successively lower VDC positions to

obtain a higher resolution reading.
