Identify Unsafe Sockets in Seconds
Built for field use, the TESCO Hot Socket Gap Indicator helps identify worn-out or unsafe meter socket jaws before they cause electrical failures. Its precision blade spring simulates the insertion of a meter blade and instantly flags gaps that compromise safety. A clear red visual cue indicates a socket that should be removed from service.
Designed with lab-tested accuracy, the rugged, non-conductive housing ensures safety during testing.
Description
TESCO’s Hot Socket Gap Indicator (Catalog No. 300) is the fast, easy, and accurate tool every metering technician needs. In under 30 seconds, you can test all four meter socket jaws and detect dangerous conditions like jaw pre-load loss, arcing potential, and hot sockets. No calibration maintenance is required for up to 5 years or 1 million uses, making this tool a cost-effective investment in safety.
Key Features:
- Quick Testing: Checks all four socket jaws in under 30 seconds
- Accurate Risk Detection: Detects loss of holding force using a calibrated spring mechanism
- Visual Indicator: Red warning appears if socket jaw fails minimum threshold test
- Durable Construction
- Tin-plated spring steel blade
- Non-conductive plastic body rated to 3000V
- Maintenance-Free: Calibrated for 5 years or 1,000,000 socket tests
- Made in the USA
How It Works:
- Insert the Hot Socket Gap Indicator into the meter socket jaw
- If the red flag is not visible → Socket is GOOD
- If the red flag appears → Socket is BAD (unsafe gap detected)
- For calibration services, contact TESCO or use the Calibration Fixture (Catalog No. 302).
