Accessories for Cable Locators & Utility Tracing

The right accessories unlock the full performance of your cable locator—from signal coupling and fault finding to safe transport. Choose induction clamps, direct connection leads, ground stakes/A-frames, sondes, carry cases, batteries & chargers as well as headsets/straps.

  • Clean coupling: Clamps & leads for direct or contactless signal injection
  • Pinpoint tools: Sondes and A-frames for non-metallic ducts and sheath/ground faults
  • Field ready: Protective cases, reliable power and comfort add-ons for long shifts

Transport Case
Transport Case
Sturdy hard-shell case specially designed for the protection and transport of precision receivers, including transmitter and accessories. Regional variations exist, including wheeled case versions.

Why accessories?

The right tools determine range, selectivity and repeatability. Better coupling reduces interference, stabilizes depth readings and speeds up route tracing.

Typical components

  • Signal clamps: inject/identify current on individual conductors without breaking the circuit
  • Leads & grounds: secure direct connection and solid return path
  • A-frame: pinpoint sheath/earth faults with directional guidance
  • Induction plate/loop: fast, non-contact signal injection when access is limited
  • Sonde accessories: mounts, adapters and test tools
  • Power & protection: batteries, chargers, cases, pouches, screen protection

Selection guide

  • Use case: pre-scan, route proving, service locating, fault finding
  • Frequency & power: match to 512/640 Hz, 8–9 kHz, 33 kHz
  • Compatibility: connector type, clamp opening, device specifications
  • Durability: IP rating, cable robustness, strain relief for field work

Pro tips

  • Scan in passive and active modes before digging
  • Establish a clean return path; verify contact quality and grounding
  • Document measurements; change frequency to validate uncertain results

FAQ

When should I use a signal clamp?
To inject or identify current on a single conductor without disconnecting it.
What’s the purpose of an induction plate?
Non-contact signal injection where direct connection isn’t possible.
How does an A-frame help?
It locates sheath/earth faults along the route using directional and intensity cues.
What are the essential add-ons?
A connection/ground lead kit, a suitable signal clamp and—depending on tasks—an A-frame or induction accessories.
