Gardner Bender GVD-3505 12-600v Non-Contact Voltage Tester

A non contact voltage tester serves as a key component in any electrical tool kit, allowing the user to verify the presence of AC voltage prior to working on an electrical installation or during troubleshooting without requiring physical contact with live electrical conductors.
