3. MAIN APPLICATIONS - TIP SENSOR (De-Energized)
Transmitter connection - Energized and De-energized systems
Connection of the Transmitter is the same for Energized and De-energized breaker/fuse locating.
Connecting the test leads
1. Connect the Transmitter using either simplified direct connection or separate neutral/
ground connection.
2. If the simplified direct connection method is used, connect the test leads directly to
the line/phase and neutral wires. While locating a breaker or fuse the wires will not be
traceable as the signals will cancel each other out.
3. For separate neutral connection, connect the red lead to the line/phase wire on the load
side of the system. The wire can be Energized or De-energized. Connect the green lead to
a separate neutral, such as a neutral wire as close to the breakers/fuse as it is possible.
TIP: 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.
Set up the AT-8000-TE Transmitter
1. Press the power button to turn on the Transmitter.
2. Verify that the test leads are properly connected. The red LED voltage status light will
illuminate for Energized circuits with a voltage above 30 V AC/DC. If the voltage is
De-energized, the light will be off.
3. Select the HIGH signal mode for breaker/fuse locating.
