    Non-Contact Voltage Tester

    A pen-style tester that lights or beeps near energized conductors without touching them. A fast first check for live wires.

    Common uses

    Verifying a circuit is de-energized before work

    Safety note

    Always confirm a known-live source first; non-contact testers can give false negatives.
