    Circuit Tracer

    High-Resolution Circuit Tracer

    Locate cables behind walls, check for continuity, and identify circuit breakers. Connect the transmitter to an electrical receptacle or cable to send a signal to the receiver, which identifies the path of the cable or the correct breaker with a digital display, indicating lights, and sound alerts.
    High-Resolution Circuit Tracer—High-resolution circuit tracers have a receiver with adjustable sensitivity, so they can pinpoint the transmitter's signals from a greater distance than standard circuit tracers.

    Data Cable Identifiers

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Data Cable Identifiers.
    Trace unshielded data and telephone cables to their source. Attach the identifier with the included alligator clips and send a signal through the cable. The signal is then received by the removable handheld probe. As you get closer to the cable you're tracing, the probe's audio and visual signals get stronger.

    120V AC

    80V AC to 300V AC

    Identify the circuit breaker connected to an electrical receptacle. The transmitter plugs into the receptacle and sends a signal through the cable to the receiver. Move the receiver over the breakers, and light and sound alerts indicate when you find the correct breaker.
    Circuit Breaker Identifier Adapters—Circuit breaker identifier adapters trace breakers for light bulb sockets and switches.
