The Ground Tester, in addition to checking if you can perform Earthing at home, also checks the current part of the outlet (live and neutral).
Here are the different indications of the Earthing Ground Tester:
- CORRECT 🟢 🟢⚫
- You can start enjoying your Earthing device!!
-
- MISSING EARTH 🟢 ⚫⚫
- No Ground detected.
- You should try another outlet. It is possible that in the same home, some outlets have the correct grounding while others do not.
-
- LIVE EARTH REVERSE ⚫🟢🔴
- No Ground detected.
- You should try another outlet and, in this case, also try turning the tester around. Sometimes, when you turn it and reconnect, it shows as correct.
-
- LIVE NEUTRAL REVERSE 🟢⚫🔴
- Live and neutral are reversed. It doesn't matter for the connection of the grounding devices or the house installation. In many countries, it doesn't matter if the live or neutral is on the right or left.
- If we turn our tester it should come out correct.
- In that case, you can start enjoying your Earthing device!!
-
- MISSING NEUTRAL ⚫🟢⚫
- Neutral and/or live is not detected. The Ground could be correct (but we cannot ensure it). Upon detecting a possible electrical fault, we recommend contacting a professional.
-
- 🟢🟢🔴
- Possible electrical fault (some short circuit, misconnected wire ...). We recommend contacting a professional.
If you notice any anomaly in your home's electrical installation, we suggest contacting a professional electrician for proper evaluation and resolution. The safety of your home is paramount, and an expert can ensure a safe and efficient electrical environment.
In Europe, most homes incorporate grounding systems according to construction regulations.
This mandatory regulation for more than 50 years in construction is considered essential to prevent electrical accidents and ensure a safe and functional domestic environment according to current regulations in the European Union.
