[QUOTE="steptoe, post: 7716, member: 7"] have used loadsa gear similar to that buddy, but a helluva lot cheaper. basically it measures the length of the circuit, either open or close, so will tell you how far away the fault is. absolutely rubbish at helping you locate a fault if its wired all higgle de piggle de, as is usual with older houses, or the ones the fault is always in. they are derived from telecoms and underground fault finders where the cable is pretty obvious in its run. ps, never actually used the one you asked about so if im totally wrong in summising how it works Im really sorry.
