Klein Tools RT250 GFCI Outlet Tester with LCD Display, Electric Voltage Tester for Standard 3-Wire 120V Electrical Receptacles

Q: Is it ok to use this tester for the 20a power outlet (not gfci)?

A Very good question, since the device name starts with GFCI. Answer is YES, because despite the name, the device is mainly a regular outlet tester, checking cross wiring, missing wiring, and reporting voltages, all worthwhile tests for non-GFCI outlet. Also works with 15amp & 30amp with adapter. Thanks for the question.

Q: Most of the outlets in the basement where i'm living say >6.00 when i test them. are they wired wrong? is it safe to use the outlets?

It is not safe to use those outlets. If an outlet is good, the green light on the tester should illuminate, and the display should register a voltage close to 120 volts.

Q: Is this accurate enough to measure with some confidence which is the most upstream receptacle in a circuit for choosing gfci location?

Resolution accuracy inadequate for that task. Displayed digits determines resolution. In this case, meter accuracy will not be and can not be better than +/- 1 volt because digital resolution is always +/- 1 in the least significant digit. Example: If measuring a true, standardised 120 volts, meter might display 119V (-1), 120V or 121V (+1) if calibrated/adjusted correctly. You've got the right idea, but this meter displays only 2-1/2 digits (120V). You will need a meter with 3-1/2 (120.0V) digits displayed. Worst case resolution at 120 volts will then be ~0.1V (100 mV). You need to see those millivolts differences. Get one with stated accuracy and preferably calibrated. Cheers!

Q: What will happen if you press the gfci test on a non gfci? will it do nothing. or will it trip the breaker in the panel, and i have to flip the switch

The amber lights on the tester will blink, nothing will trip.
