Have you ever wondered if you can find out where wires are behind a wall, maybe before drilling on doing work on the wall? Well, you actually can! Wire locating equipment is available and able to give exactly that information, plus a lot more.

What exactly can you see with a cable locator? With the Sonel LKZ 720 wire locator demonstrated in the video, you can see the following:

  • Detection of wires and cables (live or not)
    • detection of cables in ceilings, walls and floors
    • detection of breaks in cables
    • tracing cables in building installation
    • locating power points and switches in buildings
    • locating short circuits between leads
    • tracing shielded cables
    • tracing cables in metal ducts
  • Identification of fuses on the distribution board
  • Tracing underground cables
  • Tracing conductive water and heating pipelines
  • Non-contact detection of live cables

Here is a demonstration of how the wire locator works:
