The CLAMPMITTER
TM
is used to induce a tracing signal on a target conductor when direct connection is
not possible, and/or when services cannot be interrupted .
Induction coupling may be better than direct connection at applying selective signal to a target conductor
with less inadvertent coupling to adjacent lines . It is common for the target conductor to carry the strongest
signal, and non-target lines will carry a weaker signal .
Successful coupler operation requires an insulated conductor that is grounded on both near and far ends .
It is best to leave the system grounds intact, or ground the line if possible, when coupling signal . N
ote
:
An insulated conductor may be may be traced without near and far end grounds if a sufficient length of
cable is buried underground on either side of the point of coupling . In this case the signal will capacitive
couple to ground .
• Turn the CLAMPMITTER
TM
on and select the desired frequencies and output power .
• Clamp the coupler around the cable with the coupler around the wire closer to the outgoing cable, not
near the system ground . The result will be a stronger signal .
