Systems, devices, and operating methods thereof provide for operation of a display based on detection of defined electrical conditions. Measurement devices may include a housing sized and shaped to be held in a hand, a set of sensor devices for sensing a set of electrical characteristics, processing circuitry, and a display supported by the housing. The measurement devices receive measurements obtained from the sensor devices and determine whether the measurements satisfy criteria for detecting defined electrical conditions in an element under test. Operating modes of the display having different corresponding illumination characteristics are controlled as a result of determining the presence of defined electrical conditions in the element under test.

Measurement devices with visual indication of detected electrical conditions

A socket tester device includes an electrical plug that is to be inserted into an electrical socket, a tester circuit electrically coupled to the electrical plug, a sound emitting device, a communication device, a processor, and a memory. The tester circuit outputs one or more signals indicating a wiring condition of the electrical socket into which the electrical plug is inserted. The memory stores instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to receive the one or more signals indicating the wiring condition of the electrical socket into which the electrical plug is inserted, control the communication device to wirelessly transmit a first message that includes data indicating the wiring condition of the electrical socket into which the electrical plug is inserted, and control whether the sound emitting device emits one or more sounds.
