3. To obtain a best effect when tracking energized conductor, please align the dot screen printing
(on the top of the sensor) to the direction of the conductor, as shown in Figures 7.1.4a and 7.1.4b.
If not aligned properly, signal may not be detected or the code may be wrong. To check the
direction of the cable, please rotate the receiver for 90 degrees regularly. The signal strength
reaches its maximum when the cable is aligned with the dot screen printing. According to the
differences of detected signals, the receiver automatically detects if the cable is energized (“ ”),
which will be displayed on the LCD. No need to perform manual setting.
7.2 Identify Circuit Breaker and Fuse (Energized and Deenergized)
For identifying circuit breaker, the cable locator generally needs to determine a correct circuit
breaker according to the signal strength and the code accuracy.
Note: For locating circuit breaker, connecting to live and neutral wires simply and directly
can be chose, since the conductors at the panel of the circuit breaker are independent. If the
mutual distances between conductors are several inches at least, there is no risk of signal
counteraction. However, if cable tracking is needed beside the identification of circuit breaker,
independent grounding shall be used to obtain best effect. Connecting to live and neutral
wires simply and directly will not trigger the GFCI-protected circuit. As shown in Figures 7.2a
and 7.2b.
