Tracing Lines at a Deeper Position
Switch off the fuse and power down the electrical
circuit.
For the two-pole measuring method, the search sig-
nal of lines close to each other often affects itself.
This is reflected in a lower search depth.
To prevent this problem, you can use an additional
power cable for the return (e.g. an extension, cable
drum, etc.).
The distance between the lines in either direction
must be at least 2 meters. Thus, the electrical field
can spread sufficiently.
Tracing Lines in the Ground
Switch off the fuse and power down the electrical
circuit.
The distance between the clamp or earth cable and
the connected earth potential must be as large as
possible. When the distance is too small, the earth
cable cannot be detected reliably.
Move the receiver over the ground very slowly. The
highest signal strength indicates the earth cable’s
course. The signal strength for the line decreases
when the distance increases.
