- Technical questions clarified with the manufacturer
Description
Which breaker feeds this outlet, where is the conductor open, where does the cable run inside the wall? The TR-946 transmitter injects a 32.768 kHz signal and the RC-946 receiver shows signal strength as a number and a tone, on energised and de-energised circuits up to 480 V AC/DC.
Benefits
- Identifies fuses and breakers, also on 3-phase systems
- Pinpoints opens, shorts and splicing errors as well as conductors behind walls and underground
- Numeric value with peak-detecting bar graph and variable tone for clear tracing
- Does not affect GFCIs or sensitive equipment on the line
- CAT III 480 V, ETL Listed, transmitter with fast-acting ceramic fuse
- Complete with test lead kit, soft case and 10 AA batteries
Applications
- Troubleshooting building wiring
- Breaker identification in distribution boards
- Locating cables in walls before drilling
