Abstract

A 240 volt outlet tester is described. The 240 volt outlet tester includes a housing with three or four prongs extending outwardly from a base of the housing. The prongs are designed so that they can be inserted into either a three or four wire 240 volt outlet. Indicator lights are integrated into the housing. A test circuit is located within the housing. The test circuit is designed to detect whether the 240 volt outlet has been wired correctly. If the 240 volt outlet is correctly wired, all the indicator lights integrated into the housing illuminate. If the 240 volt outlet is improperly wired, one or more indicator lights do not illuminate.
