A test light, test lamp, voltage tester, or mains tester is a piece of electronic testequipment used
to determine the presence of electricity in a piece of equipment under test.
Polarity Test and Identification of AC and DC: ... Insert the two supply wire leads in thepotato about 1 cm
to 2 cm deep as shown in the picture.
According to the nature of flow of current and magnitude of voltage with respect to time voltage
and current are of two types. In this article I will describe various methods available to identify ac and dc
and there polarity too.
The same test can be done using a digital multimeter. All the process will be same as in case of
analog voltmeter, only you have to rotate the selector switch to the high value of dc range if you don’t
know the rating of supply or if you know the rating than place the selector switch just higher than the
rating of supply. If the digital multimeter shows positive reading this means that positive wire of
multimeter is connected to the positive of supply terminal and the negative wire of multimeter is
connected to the negative of supply terminal. If the reading is negative this means this the digital
multimeter terminal are just opposite of supply. In simple positive of supply is connected to negative of
multimeter and negative of the supply is connected to the positive of the multimeter.
Take a piece of potato and cut the potato into two equal pieces. Insert the two supply wire leads
in the potato about 1 cm to 2 cm deep as shown in the picture. Remember that the distance between the
two wires not too close as this will cause direct short circuit. Switch on the power supply. As soon as you
switch on the power supply you will see greenish color circle around one of the wire. The wire which is
surrounded by greenish color is the positive one and the rest one is negative.
This test is very similar to polarity test of dc using potato method. The only difference in this test
is in the result. In simple you will observe greenish color circle in the wires unlike dc. A beautiful sketch is
shown below for better understanding.
This test is similar to polarity test of dc using salt water method. Arrange all the things as described above
and switch on the power supply. In this test you will observe gas bubbles are produced from both the
wire. The same observation is for both salt water solution and for sulfuric acid and water solution.
