X = DO NOT USE! Alert distance is too short or non-existent. Distances were measured using a 4ft x 2in diameter busbar elevated 2.5 feet above the ground, in an outdoor setting (26°C and 35% RH) by a tester walking with a COMPASS Pro device mounted on a full-brim hard hat. Distances will vary depending on conditions; always verify exact distances for a given situation.
