Modes of Use

One of the primary uses for the 200EP inductive amplifier is to locate wires hidden underground and any breaks or disruptions in these wires. Wires are often buried beneath concrete and other fixed materials, making it essential for a tool to be able to detect wires without direct contact. The 200EP inductive amplifier can also work in tandem with tone generators to locate cable such as telephone cross connections.

Wire Types

The 200EP inductive amplifier can detect AC wires, alternating current wires that have electric currents running through them. The current in AC wires changes direction occasionally and spontaneously. The opposite of an AC wire is a DC wire; the current in DC wires flows only in one direction. AC wires are more commonly used than DC wires and provide electricity for both residential and commercial use. The 200EP inductive amplifier detects both AC and DC wires.

Product Features

Tempo’s 200EP inductive amplifier is a commonly used benchmark in the electronics industry. This inductive amplifier also supports accurate readings with tight groupings of multiple cables, and the 200EP inductive amplifier maintains the ability to correctly identify cables. The 200EP also allows you to change the volume of the identifier. This is a useful feature in cases where the tone may interfere with the correct identification of a wire.

Extra Features

The 200EP comes with an extra LED that makes it easier to read the indicator for signal strength. The tool itself is battery-operated, but the batteries are not included with the purchase. The 200EP inductive amplifier does, however, come with a two-inch speaker, a metal tip and an extra duckbill.
