work, the AEMC® Model 6881 detects electrical power cables,

telecommunication cables, metal pipes and even restrictions in

non-metal conduit.

Comprising a transmitter and a receiver, the Model 6681 is

simple to use on both current-carrying and non-current-carrying

electrical wiring. Its digital technology overcomes interference

and disturbance signals to provide precise location details. The

receiver displays the value of the signal measured, which

is also shown on a bar chart, and emits audible signals

whose amplitudes vary in proportion to the signal

distance.

This makes it very simple to follow electrical cables
through walls or detect buried pipes. To guide you and
simplify your work, the receiver can quickly identify the
circuit-breaker or fuses corresponding to the power
outlet which the transmitter is connected to. It can
be used to detect short-circuits or breaks on existing
installations. For example, it is possible to detect faults

in under-fl oor radiant heating pipes. The Model 6681 is

lightweight and includes a complete set of accessories

for direct measurement.
