I like your delivery. I like that you only talk about what is important.

My quick confirmation that the correct breaker has been shut off is to sniff it again with the receiver after turning it off - if the tone at the panel is gone, you’ve got it. Once you shut off the power to the transmitter, it stops chirping.

Good demonstration! The “open ground” is because your alligator clips were only connected to hot and neutral. If the plug adapter had 3 clips it would most likely show “wired correctly” but since the tracer is following the hot back to the breaker you don’t need an alligator clip on the ground 👍🏽⚡️

Makes sense. Thanks for the explanation 👍

It's the same thing with the cheater adapters you used in the lamp. The screw in adapter doesn't have a ground on it so the tester will always show open ground.

Oooh, I bought one of those things years ago but my eyes glazed over trying to figure out the instructions. Now I've bought a treadmill and I've got two air conditioners running so I need to make sure they are all on separate circuits. Thanks for taking the time to make this video.

I got an upgraded panel, and some singles were traded for minis that share a neutral. So they are tied together. I drives my tester nuts.

I noticed for your lightbulb demo you held it up or horizontal. That’s because it unplugs itself with its own weight when held upside down like you would use it in practically every lightbulb source... My solution to this was bend the connectors inwards but that still barely helps. Was curious if you were gonna mention this or not

Great tool but for others who don't know obviously if there in no power going to the outlet it can't be traced.
@MrModoriАй бұрын
Is it possible to go through this rationale with a mega-ohmmeter and a transmitter (but no receiver)? Clearly I would need a second set of eyes to watch the receiver (at any given receptacle) if I am at the fuse box with a mega-ohmmeter. What I have is one dead receptacle (no lights on the receiver), but a poorly labelled fuse box with no obviously tripped breaker switches on any of the fuses. Therefore, most likely one dead fuse yet to be discovered (and then replaced). Thanks in advance.

Why does the Klein transmitter indicate correct wiring(2 orange lights are on) but the receptacle does not function?
@johnindelicato46206 ай бұрын
How do you trace for a light switch? I want to update a bunch old light switches in my house, but not sure how to trace those back to the breaker. Looks like I might have to do what you did with the smoke alarm wires?
@Masononi4 ай бұрын
Whatever the switch turns on, you can test that, whether it's an outlet or a light fixture. Good luck!

Anyone's know if this will work on circuit breaker that are broken or no good? Or does there have to be power going through the circuit breakers/a good breaker?
@patmx57 күн бұрын
It needs power to the receptacle - the transmitter runs on the line voltage.

Looks dangerous and hard. Since you don’t recommend working with live wires on the smoke detector, should we just turn all circuits off if we need to replace our wired smoke detector?

I bought a Klein breaker/circuit detector which continually tells me one breaker is indicated as the only breaker serving my house. I have turned off the breaker and the circuit which should be off isn't. Should I return the Klein detector or can someone direct me as to what to do?

This tool does nothing to help u. You still have to walk inside the house to check the lights on the outlet component, then movie it to the next room, and repeat. U accomplish the same thing by turning every light on in the home or plugging something into an outlet and flipping off each breaker individually, then going into the house and seeing which light or appliance is off.
@ApartmentMaintenancePro2 күн бұрын
I don't understand your argument. You have to walk inside ONCE, compared to several times without this circuit tracer. Of course you could get lucky but you can't rely on that if you do this constantly.
