ABSTRACT:
A tester applies a high-voltage test signal across the probes of a high-voltage measuring apparatus, wherein at least one of the probes is mounted at a probe end of an elongated insulated pole. The tester includes a battery-powered generator for generating the test signal which is applied across two contact terminals, respectively adapted for connection to the probes. One of the contact terminals is disposed at the bottom of an elongated tubular socket which receives the probe end of the pole, the contact terminal including two conductive members spring-biased apart until the pole is inserted in the socket. The generator is energized through a switch which may be mounted on the generator housing. In one embodiment the other contact terminal is an alligator clip and in a second embodiment the other contact terminal is disposed in a second socket.
