Circuit tracers are the electrician's workhorse and the home and building inspector's time saving device. You just can't do your job without one.
You need to find the right circuit finder or tracer to invest in. Here are some of the options to look for in an electrical tracer:
Locate a circuit finder that meets all of your needs
Sometimes a simple circuit breaker finder doesn't do the job. Sometimes you need to invest in a multi-functional tool that keeps up with your high workload and pays for itself in saved employee hours.
I recommend: The
Greenlee Power Finder Circuit Seeker, model 2011 and the
Ideal SureTest Circuit Tracer 958 are multi-functioning tools for the high demands of your industry. With features such as a 4-mile range and the ability to identify blown fuses and breakers on both live or dead wiring, open or closed circuits, you know you'll get some use out of these tools.
Keep durability and portability in mind when you meet your electrical tracing needs
You work out in the field, that is why your electrical wire tracer equipment needs to be field ready. This means durable, lightweight and most of all simple and easy to use.
I recommend: The
Amprobe Advanced Circuit and Wire Tracer and the
Ideal Digital Circuit Breaker Finder with GFCI are durable tools built with the field crew in mind. Both electric wire tracer tools are lightweight and easy to use, a big plus when you've got to get to the next job site.
Find a electrical circuit finder supplier who can meet all your wire tracking and tool needs
It's nice when you have a go-to person for all your electrical circuit tracking needs. This way, you're not wasting hours searching for the right tool to meet your needs and you've got someone to call when things go wrong.
