Taparia 125mm Tester

The Taparia 125 mm Tester is a compact and reliable tool used for detecting the presence of voltage in electrical circuits. It functions as a voltage tester, often referred to as a test pencil or test screwdriver, and is primarily used for identifying live wires and checking the presence of AC voltage, typically up to 250 volts. Measuring 125mm in length, the tester features a chrome-plated blade for durability and corrosion resistance, along with a transparent plastic handle that houses a neon bulb. When the metal tip of the tester is placed on a conductor or terminal and the metal cap at the end is touched with a finger, the bulb lights up if voltage is present. This provides a quick and simple way to verify electrical connectivity. While it's a handy tool for basic household use, it should not be used for high-voltage industrial applications or as a substitute for more advanced testing equipment like a multimeter.
