Read and understand this material before operating and servicing this
equipment. Failure to understand how to safely operate this tool can result
in accident causing serious injury or death.
Electric shock and fire hazard: Contact with live circuits can result in
severe injury or death.
WARNING
The Arc Fault Circuit Tester BT-AFT1 is designed for use on 120 volt wiring systems using
a standard 15 or 20 amp outlet receptacle. Using this product with any other electrical sys-
tem may damage the product or result in injury or death.
1. Plug the unit into an AFCI protected branch circuit outlet. The AC Voltage LED will illumi-
nate, indicating a live circuit. The unit will then perform an internal test, which takes
approximately two seconds.
2. After approximately two seconds, press and hold the Trip button. The Arc LED will flash
during arc simulation, followed by the AC Voltage LED turning off once the AFCI breaker
has tripped.
If the AFCI breaker does not trip, the AC Voltage LED will remain illuminated. The unit is
either plugged into a non-AFCI circuit, the AFCI breaker is defective or there is an error in
the wiring. The unit will not perform a subsequent test until it has been disconnected from
AC voltage and then reconnected.
NOTE: The arc fault circuit breaker tester will automatically reset anytime power is discon-
nected and reconnected for a minimum of one-half second.
All appliances or equipment on the circuit being tested should be unplugged to help avoid
erroneous test.
Not a comprehensive diagnostic instrument but a simple instrument to indicate that the
receptacle is protected by an AFCI.
