Southwire 40022S Receptacle Tester; Black

Easy to use

I had to replace all of the GFCI outlets in my house (see my public profile for more details if you are curious, amazing GFCI outlets) and I bought this tool to ensure they would be wired correctly and function. There is a little button on the front which causes a ground fault, to test a GFCI. It worked like a charm and showed me each time if I had made any mistakes. Im glad it did, as I had actually switched around one of my outlets but fixed it later, thanks to this device. In all, its a fantastic product for a fantastic price. I have no complaints whatsoever and think it is the perfect addition to an electricians toolkit!

Only real complaint is that I was hopping the lights were LEDs and therfore a littl brighter, but for the price is is bright enough and works perfect. The GFIC tester is a nice thing to have.

Its a quality outlet tester that youll pay a few bucks more for than a budget version. Works as intended. I would use this tool professionally if I were a home inspector.

Apart from lights not being very bright in a sunny room, it works very well.

This is awesome! Even if you dont wire outlets yourself, you should check your outlets. This tool helped me to see there was an issue with a ground wire. The ground wire had a small hidden break in it and I was able to locate it and fix it. Without this tool, the outlet would work, and I wouldnt have known that it could be a shock issue. Very helpful!

What can I say, it does what is supposed to do. I recommend it. One problem only: The little printed or painted squares showing the result are super little so if you dont have 20/20 vision anymore you will need your glasses. For that Im giving it 4 stars.

I like everything

This works just like it should. I dont have a hard time seeing the lights. It was a good price and gets the job done.
