Connecting Transmitter to an Energized Working System

The Transmitter, with the red test lead, can be directly connected
to the live wire of the working electrical equipment under load
(motor, electronics, etc). Tracing can be performed without
needing to turn off the equipment or switching power off.

Proper connection
with separate
ground
1. Plug the green and red test leads into the Transmitter.
2. Connect the green wire to a separate ground.
3. Connect the red test lead to the wire being traced. For
receptacles, make sure to connect the test lead to the
line (hot) wire. For Energized systems the signal will
ONLY be transmitted between the load-side to which
the Transmitter is connected and the source of power.
Note:
Simplified direct connection can also be used to
connect the Transmitter (refer to the user manual for
further instructions).
