What are the defects?
A defect has the potential, over time, to cause the meter to

a hazardous voltage. In this situation it is imperative that the
practice of testing the meter on a known live circuit before and
after checking the circuit under test is maintained. Should the
meter not pass the "known live circuit test" its use should be
discontinued immediately, identified as faulty and removed from
