## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the tracker able to find locations of cut wires that don't form a complete circuit? (looking for a cut sprinkler solenoid wire)**
A: It should be able to track which ever end of the wire it is attached to up to the cut point. But not all the way through the circuit.  I.e. if a wire is cut in half and this is attached to the left side it can trace the wire up to the left side of the cut. To trace the right side, you would have to hook it to the right side of the cut wire.

**Q: How do I use this to find speaker wire in the ceiling? There are wire coming in through the entertainment center area and they go up into the ceiling.**
A: You clip  active transmitter to exposed wire ends. Turn on receiver and adjust to a level just high enough to receive signal. Move receiver around area until you get the strongest signal and follow with receiver to end.

**Q: Will this work on live circuits behind plaster walls and will it find circuit breakers for labeling?**
A: Yes to both

**Q: can this unit find where a break in contiunity is? IE a snipped or kinked wire**
A: Yes, I use it for to find breaks in underground dog fence. It gets weak around 500 ft and you need to hook into the wire again, but I'm fencing 13+ acres for my German Shepherds to run. We have a lot of deer "hooves" and critters that will cut or chew the wire. Not the easiest to use, but with patients you can find the break.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works as expected.
*by J***N on December 21, 2013*

Usually disappointed with the tracers that I've used in the past. This meter was a pleasant surprise. I gave this item a five star rating because it worked as described. I used it to trace an un-energized 12 gauge wire approximately 70 feet from the start at the main panel to the end which was a receptacle at the other end of my home. I was able to follow the proper cable by pinpointing the cable at various points along its path using the manual power receiving settings and medium power transmit at the panel. I have not used the meter enough at this point in time to properly evaluate all its functions but I also have no reason to think that it won't perform as described if used properly. Very easy to use and very accurate if the settings are manipulated correctly. Good manual. Also, as this meter is new to me I haven't put it through the rough conditions that I sometimes encounter on a job site. Seems to be well built, but I won't know how long it will last until I've put it through a few tough jobs.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worked as promissed. Manual is really bad.
*by L***. on July 24, 2019*

Worked fine out of the box. I was able to locate an underground 12 gauge insulated stranded copper tracer wire for about 100 or 150 feet, buried about 3 feet deep in clay soil. It only gets 4 out of 5 stars because of the horribly written user manual - one of the worst I've ever seen, even for made-in-China electronics. If you don't already know the basics of signal tracing, or are willing to spend lots of time looking through the various YouTube videos, some of which are worse than the user manual, you might struggle to figure out how to use this locator. But after you figure it out, it will probably pay for itself if you are faced with having to hire an undergroud locate service even once.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easily found "lost" water line 6ft deep under dirt road
*by U***R on March 10, 2020*

When our neighborhood water lines were installed 40 years ago, they used PVC with no tracer wire. Finding 4-6 inch mains is easy, but the 3/4 inch homeowner taps were impossible to find without potentially trenching all the way from the meter pit to the main, including across our roads.I was able to feed a fish tape through from the meter out to the main, hook this sensor on, and find the tip within a 2 foot radius, a smaller footprint than any hole we dig can be. The location given from the sensor matched the distance of the fish tape almost exactly.I was even able to trace the line walking normally, so a penetration of 5ft of air + 6ft of dirt.We were able to zero in by putting the transmitter on auto power level 2, and the receiver on manual mode until we would just barely get a signal. Then we set the receiver on the ground, let it settle, then moved the receiver and compared readings.We know this line crossed buried electric and phone, and signal never jumped to those.Overall *super* impressed with this tool, hope i can find reasons to use the other features. Now we can do horizontal line splitting for repairs, saving us a ton of $ and time, and not having to trench across the road.
