  Good talk.  Almost zero bs and some of us just want the facts. Appreciate you

  You can also disconnect outlets that don’t have power and go one by one to see which way power runs to narrow down the problem

  I picked up this set yesterday used for 50$. It all works and came with everything. I feel like I stole it lol!

  I used the et310 on several jobs and then got the et450- just fyi for those looking, the et310 is very accurate and far faster in identifying the exact circuit, because it automatically remembers the highest value from everything you show it in the panel. The more expensive et450 will allow you to trace high voltage and de-energized circuits, but you often have to play with the sensitivity, and if you do adjust it, you have to trace the whole panel again to find your maximum and visually look at every reading. The et350 was just 2 sweeps of the panel every time, and it would sniff that thing out. If you need the extra voltages above 240, or the extra sensitivity, get the et450. But I seriously miss using the et350. It was snappy and it felt way more like a fully automated process. It was either red or it wasn't, and it was awesome.

  I’m trying to determine how best to trace a low voltage line.  A landscaper installed a low voltage wire through a small brick wall to feed a concrete flower pot.  I have access to the wires that come out of the pot.  Unfortunately, as I have found elsewhere, the contractor installed these in case a low voltage light was desired in the pot but left the other side in the ground disconnected. How can I find the other side without digging up my yard?  Thanks

  You forget to mention about the tracking capability of the cable

  I only wish they made an inductive clamp for this, it would also be nice if there was an indicator on the receiver that lets you know once the circuit you're tracing is de-energized. A bonus add on would be for an extension rod that allows you to walk upright when using the transmitter to trace buried cables so that you don't have to either hunch over or be on your hands, and knees. .

  I am Nelosn, this equipment also works for direct voltage or direct current. thanks

  Here in the states, these seem to be very hard to find at this time. Perhaps they are so popular that Klein can't keep up with demand...? I may have to contact (no pun intended) one of my electrician friends and see if they can get it through a supply house. I really need to map out the wiring in my house, and I think this tool would fit the bill well (I can't say it would be ideal because they're a competitor :) )

  Would be interesting to know if you had any success tracing Underground cables in conduit or direct burial cable<br>Ty
