4. SPECIAL APPLICATIONS
4.9 Sorting Bundled Wires
Identifying a specific wire in a bundle
Connect the AT-7000-TE transmitter using Energized or De-Energized TIP SENSOR mode. If
connecting to energized wire, make sure the transmitter is connected on the load side.
Select respectively Energized or De-energized TIP SENSOR mode on AT-7000-RE receiver. As
far as it is possible pull one wire at the time way from other wires in the bundle and touch it
with the TIP sensor. The strongest signal indicates the proper wire in the bundle.
4.10 No Access to Bare Conductors (Signal Clamp)
The clamp accessory is used for applications where there is no access to the bare conductor/
wire to connect transmitter test leads. When clamp is connected to the transmitter, it
enables the AT-7000-TE to induce signal to energized or de-energized wire through the
insulation. The signal will travel through the wire both directions and it will affect all the
branches. This method is safe to use for any sensitive electronic equipment.
Connect the clamp
1. Connect the SC-7000-EUR test leads to the terminals of the transmitter
(polarity does not matter).
2. Clamp the SC-7000-EUR Signal Clamp around
the conductor. To increase the signal strength
wind a few turns of conductor wire around
the clamp if possible.
