About This Instrument

The Vartech V 8222 G is a heavy-duty True RMS digital multimeter designed for high-voltage electrical work where safety is the primary concern. Its standout capability is the combination of LIVE wire testing and Non-Contact Voltage (NCV) detection with simultaneous audio and visual indication — making it the safest choice for panel testing, switchgear inspection and MV/LV distribution work where live conductors must be positively identified before making contact. With 1000 V AC/DC, 20 A and auto-ranging capacitance and frequency measurement, it is the complete instrument for the high-voltage electrical professional.

Key Features

LIVE wire testing with NCV — audio and visual indication simultaneously; positively identifies energised conductors before contact, the most critical safety check in panel work
True RMS up to 1000 V AC/DC — measures at the highest distribution voltages correctly, including on non-sinusoidal waveforms from UPS, generators and inverter systems
Mains frequency measurement in the 1000 V AC range — verify supply frequency directly at HV panel terminals without stepping down to a lower voltage point
Auto-ranging capacitance (6 nF to 20 mF) and frequency (10 Hz to 20 MHz) — broad measurement coverage without manual range selection
20 A AC/DC current measurement — suitable for motor feeds, feeder cables and heavy load testing
Temperature measurement from −20 °C to 1000 °C — extends the meter into thermal and environmental diagnostics
Transistor (hFE), diode and continuity test — component-level diagnosis built into a high-voltage field meter
