Description
TWIN-PROBE ELECTRICAL TESTER USED IN HIGH-VOLTAGE TRANSMISSION LINES
Technical Field The present invention relates to a twin-probe electrical tester that measures and displays the voltage value, current value, and/or resistance value, especially on high voltage transmission lines.
Prior Art
Avometer is a device that is produced by combining necessary tools in a single body in order to measure the voltage value, current value, and/or resistance value in high voltage transmission lines. Said device, which is produced in analog or digital form and has the largest area of use, measures DC voltage, AC voltage, DC current, AC current, and resistance. Today, improved models of avometers are called multimeters. A multimeter allows for performing the functions of voltmeter, ammeter, and ohmmeter devices with a single device.
A multimeter is one of the most important devices in the world of electronics. It is frequently used for testing the accuracy of the elements used in a circuit, or for detecting an electronic problem at one point. Multimeters comprise two twin-probe electrical testers to be able to measure voltage value, current value, and/or resistance value. Electrical testers are connected to a multimeter by means of a probe made of composite material. Probe connection ports vary in probe production. The multimeter is plugged into a probe connection port, a metal pin at the end portion of the multimeter is also plugged into a corresponding metal port in female form. Since the outer form of each multimeter is different, the connection type of electrical testers also varies. Therefore, probes and multimeters manufactured in the state of the art are not always compatible with each other.
In the state of the art, probes in the electrical testers are fixed and not replaceable. Thus, a new probe is required due to the possible break or loss of the probe. Since the probes are sold together with the electrical testers and multimeters, an intact
electrical tester and multimeter must also be replaced and purchased once again in case probes require replacement. The electrical tester and multimeter are purchased even though they are not damaged in order to procure the probes due to breaking or loss of the probe, thereby leading to extra costs and loss of time. However, the electrical testers used in the state of the art are compatible with a single contact tip (pin tip or fork tip). A different contact tip (pin tip or fork tip) requires purchasing a new electrical tester. Separate electrical testers are purchased for each contact tip (pin tip or fork tip). This also incurs additional costs and results in time loss. On the other hand, since the multimeters and electrical testers are imported goods, this causes an increase in product cost, transportation, stock cost, and due date.
Objects of the Invention
An object of the present invention is to provide a twin-probe electrical tester with a replaceable probe that is compatible to be connected various multimeters in case the probe is broken or lost.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a twin-probe electrical tester with extensibility by means of attaching a second electrical tester to the probe that is plugged into the electrical tester.
Yet another object of the present invention is to reduce costs and save time by providing a probe that can be supplied as a replaceable part without the requirement of purchasing a new multimeter in case the probe requires replacement.
Yet another object of the present invention is to obtain a twin-probe electrical tester, in which more than one contact tip is connected in accordance with the requirement by means of the probes with an M3 connection screw socket. Yet another object of the present invention is to provide advantages in transportation, stock costs, and due dates by means of domestically produced probes.

Accompanying Figures illustrate the twin-probe electrical tester (1 ) that is connected to the multimeter in order to measure and display the voltage value, current value, and/or resistance value by being used on high voltage transmission lines. The probe (2) is plugged into both ends of the electrical tester (1) as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 in order to measure the voltage value, current value, and/or resistance value. A multimeter is connected to one end of the electrical tester (1 ), in which the probe (2) is located at both ends, and the contact tips (4, 5) are connected to the other end in order to perform the measurement. Probes (2) are made of composite (glass fiber reinforced plastic) material. A composite material is preferred in the production of probe (2) since it is light, resistant to water and the external environment in addition to being nonconductive. Figure 3 illustrates the probe (2) connection mounting port. In the present invention, probe (2) has an M3 connection screw socket (3). The fact that probe (2) has an M3 connection screw socket (3) allows it to be compatible with various multimeters and to be connected with a close fit connection. Replaceable probes (2) that can be
connected to different multimeters are obtained by means of the probes (2) having an M3 connection screw socket (3) with a grooved structure. The connection between the twin-probe electrical tester (1 ) and the multimeter is established by the probe (2). First, a second probe (2) is plugged into the other end of the electrical tester (1 ), one end of which is connected to the multimeter in order to measure the voltage value, current value, and/or resistance value, and various contact tips (4, 5) are attached subsequently. The contact tip (4, 5) preferred depending on requirements are easily removed and plugged into the M3 connection screw socket (3) of the probe (2), and into the other end of the electrical tester (1). In the present invention, more than one contact tip (4, 5) of a single electrical tester (1) is connected depending on the requirement.
In the present invention, the domestically produced probes (2) can be manufactured as replacement parts separately from the multimeter and the electrical tester. Probes (2) produced as replacement parts can be supplied easily. There is no need for purchasing a new multimeter and electrical tester since the probe (2) is produced, sold, and/or used as a replacement part, thereby providing advantages in product cost, transportation, stock cost, and due date by means of the replaceable feature of the probe (2).
Figure 4 illustrates the extension view of the twin-probe electrical tester (1). A second electrical tester (1 ) is added to the probe (2) that is plugged into the electrical tester (1), thereby obtaining an electrical tester (1), which can be extended depending on the requirement.
