OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
RT310 is designed for use with North American 120V
electrical outlets. DO NOT connect to higher voltage
electrical supplies.
POWER ON/OFF
Press the Power button 1 to power ON/OFF the tester. When the
tester is powered ON, the Power ON indicator 8 will be illuminated.
The tester will automatically power OFF after 2 minutes of inactivity
to conserve battery life.
NOTE: Always power ON the tester before inserting the plug 9 into
an electrical outlet.
WIRING CONDITION
Prior to use, always verify tester operation by testing on a
known live and correctly wired electrical outlet.
With the tester powered ON and inserted into the outlet, the wiring
condition will be indicated by the wiring condition indicators 3 .
If the outlet is energized, the Hazardous Voltage Warning 2 and the
Energized Indicator 4 will be illuminated. The wiring condition will
be communicated as detailed in the table below.
If the tester indicates that the outlet is not wired correctly,
consult a qualified electrician.
NOTE: Conditions NOT indicated include, but are not limited to,
quality of ground, multiple hot wires, reversal of neutral and ground
conductors, and combinations of defects other than dual open neutral
and ground.
NOTE: All appliances or equipment on the circuit being tested should be
unplugged to help reduce the possibility of erroneous readings.

GFCI, AFCI, AND 30mA GROUND FAULT FUNCTIONS
NOTE: Check the GFCI, AFCI, or 30mA Ground Fault devices' user
manual for information on how the specific device operates prior to
using this tester.
Power ON the tester and insert the plug into the outlet on the
circuit under test, noting the wiring condition. The Wiring Condition
indicator 3 should indicate Correctly Wired, the Hazardous Voltage
Warning indicator 2 should be illuminated, and the circuit status
indicator 4 should indicate Energized.
DO NOT attempt to initiate an electrical testing event. Consult a
qualified electrician.
Press the GFCI button 5 , the AFCI button 6 , or the 30mA Ground
Fault button 7 to initiate the relevant electrical fault event:
If the Not Energized indicator 4 is illuminated and the Hazardous
Voltage Warning indicator 2 is not illuminated, reset the GFCI, AFCI, or
30mA Ground Fault device by pressing its reset button. After reset, the
Hazardous Voltage Warning 2 should illuminate, the wiring condition
should indicate Correctly Wired, and the circuit status should indicate
Energized. The device appears to be functioning correctly.
If the circuit remains Energized, or any other condition is indicated
other than Not Energized, the device being tested may be miswired,
may not be installed correctly, or may not be functioning appropriately.
INDICATOR
Consult a qualified electrician.
NOTE: The AFCI button 6 will be deactivated if the tester detects
that the electrical outlet is not wired correctly.
NOTE: Allow 20 seconds between successive AFCI testing events.
NOTE: If the AFCI indicator 12 is blinking following an AFCI testing
event, a successive AFCI test cannot be initiated. Wait for indicator
to turn OFF prior to attempting the next AFCI testing event.
