Trace Wires in Conduit or Pipe
You can use one of the alternative methods to trace a wire inside a conduit or pipe.
Junction Box Method
To use the junction box method to trace a wire inside conduit or pipe:
1. Connect the Transmitter.
2. On the Receiver, select tip sensor mode.
3. Open the closest junction box that is to the Transmitter.
4. Use the tip sensor to identify which wire in the junction box carries the signal.
5. Move from junction box to junction box to follow the path of the wire.
Conductive Fish Tape or Wire Method
To use conductive fish tape to trace a wire inside non-metallic conduit or pipe:
1. Insert conductive fish tape or wire inside the conduit.
2. Connect the Transmitter.
a. Connect the red test lead to the conductive fish tape or wire.
b. Connect the green test lead to a separate ground.
3. On the Receiver, select tip sensor mode to trace the conduit or pipe.
The Receiver detects the signal the fish tape or wire conducts through the conduit or pipe.
Trace a Shielded Wire
To trace a shielded wire:
1. Disconnect the ground on the near-end of the shielded wire.
2. Connect the Transmitter. With a wire grounded at the far-end, see Figure 20 A. With the
wire not grounded at the far-end, see Figure 20 B.
a. Connect one end of a test lead to the shield on the wire and the other end to the
Transmitter (polarity does not matter).
b. Connect one end of the second test lead to the Transmitter and the other end to a
separate ground.
