The Modiewark Fire and Rescue DC50 and AC30 Non-contact Tester is for emergency service workers. First responders to an emergency. The testers has been built and tested with the Country Fire Authority. The CFA has had many emergency situations were potential life threatening electricity is present. The CFA required a tester that would indicate DC and AC power to be used by untrained electrical personnel, where non-touch was essential. The Modiewarks can be used on solar, electric, hybrid vehicles ,trains ,trams, anywhere DC power is present over 50 volts and AC Voltages.
The dual DC50 and AC30 Kit comes in a metal hard case and have an easy to use High and Low setting, the tester also has Hi-Visual Decals to been seen in the dark. The testers are directional simply point the testers at the unknown power source and try either tester, if no power is detected it is safe to continue.

First Responder – Need help identifying a live or dead AC and DC voltage source?
- Not made in China or Taiwan as some others are. This product is manufactured in the highest quality G.L. McGavin-Modiewark facility in Australia, for over 50 years, to exacting specifications, that only makes voltage detectors and related high voltage products.
The Modiewark Fire and Rescue DC50 Non-contact DC Voltage Tester comes with a metal grounding case. Whenever an emergency involves DC electricity the DC50 is available for identifying both AC and DC power.
Electrical supply companies within Australia and the United States have been using the original non-contact and contact voltage detector Modiewark for over 30 years in day to day operations, in overhead and underground live or dead determinations. Over that period of time accidents have been reduced as electrical supply staff find that double checking the power has been deactivated a quick and easy task.
The unique properties of the non-contact and contact voltage detector is that no contact needs to be made to the active source. The following range of GL McGavin Modiewark products will save lives in any environmental disaster or accident.
G.L McGavin have been manufacturing High and Low voltage testers since 1975. The new G.L McGavin Digital hand held Proximity Tester AC30 is designed for Electricians, Technicians and the Fire and Rescue departments.

For the Fire and Rescue it is used for the safety of the rescue personnel in situations where live voltage can be present impeding rescue operations. Because it is a Digital device it can be programmed to suit any application.

GL McGavin Pty. Ltd. Is a company that was formed in Sydney Australia in 1968, out of a need to protect electrical workers from being injured. With its state of the art product the first of many models of the Modiewark non-contact voltage detector were designed. The Australian power industry gratefully accepted this tester as a life saving device, implementing a national roll out in the early 1970’s.
From this point the Modiewark adapted it’s self to the needs of the industry, improving itself by providing self testing capabilities, voltage selectors to suit each application and accessories to perform substation spout testing and phase compatibility testing.
In 2004 the Morris family Darrell & Norma Morris (owner directors) and their sons Ashley & Linsey Morris (directors) of the Morris Group, took ownership of the company and by consolidating its operation in Newcastle New South Wales, Australia, developed long overdue improvements in its manufacturing techniques. Providing in house quality control on all construction processes, making the product a safer and more reliable test instrument. With the aid of their experience staff the product improved to include phase identification, spout testing application and water resistance devices.
In 2007 a team association with a local engineer and developed a new product line of Modiewarks, The Modiewark Mini Testers providing a miniature and user friendly product allowing us to keep pace with the changing industry. Rescue departments in New South Wales Australia, took up the new rescue tester, providing their staff with a safe approach procedure. The Mini SWER and Pole tester taken in hand by Country Energy for the testing of SWER(single wire earth return) and the application of pole leakage detection which costs the industry many thousands of dollars per year. The MR tester (Meter Reader) was developed to ensure the safety of the meter readers who frequently come across live domestic power boxes.
To ensure quality control with this safety device Pritchard Electronics became an acquisition of the Morris group providing improved technologies and in house quality control.
With new technology on the way the goal of GL McGavin and its staff is to keep pace with the current industry standards and provide a better solution for electrical safety in the future. As one of the oldest and most reliable tester on the market today the GL McGavin Modiewark range of testers will always assist the electrical industry in all electrical hazard safety applications
