Circuit tracers are used to transmit a signal to your circuit breaker panel to determine which breaker has been flipped during a power surge.

You can also use circuit tracing to trace wires inside ceilings, walls, underground, and other inaccessible locations to pinpoint the location of a cable or wire.

Other uses for circuit tracers include locating ground fault shortages when a breaker trips and won’t reset; you can use the signal transmitter to find the ground fault location. They can also be used to locate dead circuits. As with any electrical device, circuit tracers have certain limitations. However, the benefits of these devices enable you to troubleshoot electrical issues or outages in your building much easier. That means less down time and less loss of business, which can save you money in the in the end.

These will have more safety features, so it is worth to make sure you get a high quality device to protect your building from electrical damages. We can show you how to properly use this device during the installation. Call us if you have questions about ratings for circuit tracers.
