Active Circuit Tracer / Wire Tracer, Finding Opens, Tone and Probe Tracing


Circuit tracers consist of a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter produces a unique signal onto the circuit to be traced. The receiver detects this unique signal when placed in the proper orientation to the wires being traced or breakers being identified. The receiver provides a numeric value and a variable pitch/tone that increase as the signal becomes stronger. The transmitter sends a 32 kilohertz, fixed-amplitude, time-modulated signal that injects a voltage onto the circuit to be traced which then induces an electromagnetic field onto the circuit.
