Cable Locators
-
Tempo, a Textron Co.
Manufacturer offering locators for wire, cable, coils and markers. The cable locator can determine the depth of wire or metallic pipe and trace the path of either active or dead systems without having to deactivate. The wire locator is a smaller system used for finding in-wall wires. The electronic marker detector has the capability of simultaneously detecting all seven application-based electronic marker types.The load coil detector identifies the presence of and counts the number of load
coils on active or inactive circuits. -
Farwest Corrosion Control Co.
Distributor of electrical test equipment including cable locators. These cable locators are all portable and of rugged design. They include the Nilsson 715, the Tinker and Rasor 505 GO-fer and the Magnetomatic. -
Megger Limited
Manufacturer of cable locators and route tracers. Cable route tracers are available with both inductive coupling or an energized connection, or just an energized connection. Inductive coupling does not require a connection to the line which permits a buried line to be traced without de-energizing or uncovering it. Energizing the line conductively provides increased tracing distance and minimizes signal coupling to other lines. Also avialable are cable height meters as well as pipe and cable locators in a split box configuration.

Radiodetection, an SPX Co.
Manufacturer offering cable locators, cable testers and cable avoidance tools. Various models of cable locators are offered for construction, water, power and telecommunications applications. Ground penetrating radar equipment is available which can find non-conductive materials including plastic pipes. Also a locator for underground water pipes using a transonde (used to vibrate the water as it passes through it and across an internal spring system sending a minute sound wave back along the pipe) is available. -
Schonstedt Instrument Company
Manufacturer of underground location instruments offering pipe and cable locators. Cable and pipe locators come in two types. One type is a simpler portable locator for less complex cable and pipe locations and smaller excavation projects. The other type is a multi-frequency unit for more complex environments with larger projects.- TraceMaster II : Remote Frequency Control

AEA Technology Inc
Manufacturer of RF and cable test equipment offering cable fault locators. The Step TDR (Time Domain Reflectometer) is designed to determine lengths of coaxial or twisted pair cables and to pinpoint faults. The Vector Impedance Analyzer can be used as a frequency domain reflectometer (FDR) for transmission line testing and fault finding. -
JDS Uniphase Corp
Manufacturer of cable fault locators. The cable fault locator is a microprocessor-controlled cable measuring instrument designed for finding discontinuity in balanced telecommunication cables. Its is hand held and can measure TDR cable parameters.Website: JDS Uniphase Corp -
Fluke Corporation
Manufacturer of testing equipment offering cable locators. This general purpose cable locator can trace cables in walls and underground, locate fuses/breakers on final circuits, and locate interruptions and short-circuits in cables. It can also be used to trace metallic pipes.
