I have a gam check, and I just wanted to quickly run through the tests that it can do (and if I say something it can't do, please correct me.
1. test lamps (lamp check mode, it is a god send, i love it)
2. if you plug both ends of a cable into it, it will test cable continuity
3. it will check power coming out of a dimmer and tell you if there is an open ground or any other problem with the power
I am posting this in questions because i know it can do 1 and 2, but I am unsure about 3, and I am slightly hesitant into plugging it into my dimmers to test the power coming out of the dimmer (but I have a bad dimmer, so...)
Anyway, just wanted to make sure that the gam check can acutely test power coming out of a dimmer and I won't short anything out nor short myself out nor burn the building down.
