Extech RT32 Wireless AC Circuit Identifier
A must-have tool for electricians, do-it-yourselfers, contractors, kitchen, bath and lighting installers, and handymen, the Extech RT32 Wireless Remote AC Circuit Identifier enables you to identify circuit breakers, wiring, switched lines, AC outlets, and light fixtures without cutting into any wires — and without a helper.
Specific Features
This versatile tool uses a pager-sized, non-contact voltage detector transmitter that clamps onto wiring mid-run and transmits a "voltage present" signal to a pocket-sized receiver carried by the user. Clamped onto a live wire, the transmitter signals the user at the breaker panel with LED and audible alerts on the receiver (up to 100-meter range). The alerts stop when the correct circuit breaker is switched and work can then be performed safely. The RT32 wirelessly identifies the correct circuit breaker controlling remote mid run AC wiring (using the included non-contact transmitter); lighting circuits (using the included built in light sensor), and AC outlets (using the included AC outlet extender).
A compact external clamp-style non-contact voltage (NCV) probe can be used for wires that are hard-to-reach, or within a bundle. For inaccessible circuit wiring, a useful lighting circuit identification function uses a light sensor to indicate lighting changes in a room caused by the user remotely opening a circuit breaker and turning off a light on the circuit. An optional AC outlet extender can also be used to identify circuits by outlets.

Clamp-on unit will sense AC Voltage of a mid-run wire and transmit the voltage present signal to the receiver indicator unit. |
|
The receiver indicator unit will indicate voltage present. When the user opens the splice or breaker, the voltage present indication stops, thereby identifying the AC wire. |

External NCV probe can be used to identify wiring in hard-to-reach areas where the transmitting unit cannot fit. |
