Metrohm HVD10/2A Acute Kit 1

The Metrohm HVD10/2A Acute Kit 1 is a high-voltage detector kit designed to help engineers and technicians confirm whether electrical systems are live or dead before work begins. Built for use across overhead lines, substations, and industrial installations, it provides a critical layer of safety when working in high-risk environments. It offers straightforward operation, combined with a robust construction that makes it a practical choice for daily use in the field.

The unit uses a contact detection method which connects to an insulated operating pole and is applied directly to the conductor or test point. Once the voltage present exceeds above the threshold, the detector delivers a clear visual and audible alarm in under a second. This fast response helps reduce the risk of accidental contact with energised equipment and supports safe isolation procedures. A built-in self-test function allows users to quickly verify correct operation before use, ensuring confidence on every job.

The detector meets IEC standards and features a high-impact ABS housing that performs well in tough site conditions. With a lightweight construction, it is easy to handle during extended use, while its shock- and drop-resistant design improves durability. The unit operates reliably indoor and outdoor with a temperature range of between -25°C and +55°C.

The Metrohm HVD10/2A kit is supplied as a complete solution, including the high-voltage detector unit, a Y-shaped electrode for effective contact, a universal adaptor, a Bowthorpe adaptor, and a protective carry case with accessory bag.
