S2300 and S2600 Load Signal Generators (LSG's)
When connected to an energized circuit, the LSG's will rapidly turn them-
selves on and off. This causes a slight, periodic current fluctuation that
causes the power line to emit its own, trace-able signal, this signal can
be detected all the way back to the main generator. However, the signal
will not interfere with any sensitive electronic equipment and does not
require power interruption.
S2300- For use on 9 to 300 volts AC or DC circuits only.
S2600- For use on 9 to 600 volts AC or DC circuits only.

Both units are intrinsically safe and have a special 'LOW’ - power setting
used when tracing GFCI- protected circuits.
As their name implies, when connected to a circuit as a load, the LSG's
cause the power line to generate a signal. The signal will be present any-
where between the LSG and the power source
(line side or 'upstream') - no signal will be present on wiring on the other
side of the LSG (load side or 'downstream'). For example, an LSG
connected to a circuit breaker will produce no signal on that circuit. It will,
however, cause a signal to be generated between that panel and the
transformer.... and beyond.
NOTE: The signal strength after transformer will decrease according to its stepdown ratio.
Power Selection Switch
Use 'Low' power when
unit is connected to a
GFCI-Protected circuit.
Use 'HIGH' power for all
other applications.
Connections for
Banana Plugs
Are not polarized so it
doesn't matter which
lead gets connected to
power and which to
ground.
LED Indicator
light will blink if properly
connected to an energized
circuit.
Intrinsically safe Fuse
Holder
Pulling out the fuse holder
automatically disconnects
the fuse from the circuit
while shielding the user
from live terminals.
No Battery!
Units receive power from
the circuit they are
connected to.
