General Arrangement —
Introduction: Theory of Locating – Cable locators consist of a
transmitter and receiver. In the case of the Pro881™ model, the
transmitter is in the long gray box and the receiver is a yellow and
black wand. In operation, a transmitter places a specific tracing signal
onto the metallic conductor you are trying to locate. This placing of an
AC signal onto a cable produces an electrical current and an
electromagnetic field around that cable. If the wand is close enough,
this signal is received and amplified by the wand.
