♦Detecting cables, electrical lines, water/gas supply pipelines buried in wall or earth;
♦Detecting interruptions and short circuit in cables and electrical lines buried in wall 
  

earth;

or 

♦Detecting fuses and assigning current circuits; 
♦Tracing sockets and distribution sockets having accidentally been covered by plastering;
♦Detecting interruptions and short-circuits in floor heating;
♦The transmitter is integrated with the function of AC/DC voltmeter, which can measure 
  12 to 400V AC/DC voltage on a linear basis:
  AC: 12 ~ 400V (50 to 60 Hz) ± 2.5%
  DC: 12

400V ±2.5%

♦The screen of the transmitter can display preset transmitting power, transmitted codes, 
  its own battery energy, mains voltage detected, AC/DC status of mains voltage detected, 
  and warning symbol for mains voltage.
♦The transmitter has the function of self-inspection to detect its own working status 
  

to display it on the LCD screen for user's reference.

and 

♦The screen of the receiver can display the transmitting power of the transmitter, 
  transmitted codes, energy of the transmitter's and its own batteries, AC voltage induced 
  signal detected and warning symbol for mains voltage.
♦The sensitivity of the receiver can be adjusted either manually or automatically.
♦The receiver can sweep frequency automatically.
♦Both the transmitter and the receiver can work under mute mode.
♦The receiver is available with automatic shutdown (It is powered off automatically 
  over 15 minutes of absence of keystroke).
♦The receiver's LCD screen is provided with backlight for application in poor light.
♦Both the transmitter and the receiver is provided with flash light function when 
  working in darkness.
♦Additional transmitters are available to extend or distinguish several signals.
♦Compactness, durability and portability.
