AT-6010 Advanced Wire Tracer Kit

I am a master electrician and I highly recommend this product to any electrician. I use it almost daily and always have it with me in my service van. It's traces live and dead circuits. Most importantly it traces multi wire branch circuits (shared neutrals) extremely well. No other tracer that I've used does as nice of a job. It will pin point the exact breaker for you with an audible tone and a quantitative signal strength displayed. I've yet to find an instance where this does not point you to the exact breaker when it hasn't been user error (make sure your common wire (black) is on the neutral or ground). It can also be used as a locator for romex within walls and UF underground provided its not in a metallic conduit. I will never buy another cheap 30 or 50 dollar circuit tracer again!

Thought the breaker was dead, turns out in this old house there are multiple 200-Amp service panels and the labeled breaker was NOT actually where power came from. This device led me to the correct breaker panel and breaker which had, deceptively, only moved very slightly off contact.

This will not locate 277 volt circuit breakers if they are on. It picks up random signals in the middle of nowhere but can't locate a conductor in the panelboard even if it's in direct contact with it. It seems to work OK for deenergized 277v circuits only. Unfortunately, that's not what I bought this for. Works OK for 120v circuits, but the $40 circuit finders are easier to use, and seem to do a better job. I would never choose to use this Amprobe on a plug circuit. Also, my transmitter runs hot, it may have something to do with the battery terminals being misaligned. The first set of batteries only lasted about 20 minutes. 8 AA batteries every 20 minutes of use becomes expensive to run. Based on my experience, I would not buy this unit or any Amprobe test equipment again.

I have been searching for what I suspected was a blown GFI. I have a large house and I have been looking for weeks. I plugged this thing in and five minutes later I’m moving paint cans that were blocking the GFI. It was simple, accurate and fun to use. I’m glad I own the tool.

I don't know if it is me but this is a little tricky to use .

I saw some negative reviews regarding the “need” to hook up the ground to a separate circuit. Yes that is recommended for “advanced” tracing......but i hook it up hot to neutral all day and it works amazing. If you’re looking for the breaker put it on the second lowest setting. It WILL find it

Had this wire tracer for alittle over a week and those brand new batteries started showing low battery led. The case is nice but having to connect ground to a separate circuit was different. I have the am probe BT 120 and that works great but wanted something more for commercial work. Returning this now and will just try a fluke tone generator or something like that.

This help me find circuits in my old house that wear corroded thru or not connected to PDU. it did not go thru about 12 of soil
