You can now use the Capacitor Wizard normally. It will withstand up to 400VDC on charged capacitors or even live circuits. However, we do not recommend that you test circuits with power applied.

ALWAYS REMOVE THE POWER FROM ANY CIRCUIT BEING TESTED - Your Capacitor Wizard is protected but YOU ARE NOT!
