Key Features
The Hotwire Fox & Hound features an operating frequency of 400kHz to 500kHz, with an adjustable output voltage of 5vpp to 30vpp (open circuit). It can trace live 120/220VAC power lines up to 250VAC max and locate wires through drywall, plaster, wood, cement, and more. The Hotwire can also locate buried wires up to 6 inches deep and 1000 feet in length, making it an ideal tool for wire tracing and electrical testing.
TrueTrace Technology
