Amprobe VPC-20N Voltage-Continuity-Tester - Manual (Page 2)

To check for the presence of AC electrical voltage in a conductor
or outlet:
1. Touch the bottle shaped protrusion of the probe tip to the hot
conductor, or insert the probe tip into all the outlet holes. The probe will
distinguish between hot and neutral.
2. If AC electrical voltage is present and this is the hot side, the non-
contact probe LED will illuminate.
