LA43 Proximity antenna (V14310), black. Use with a 33 kHz signal
generator: for identifying exposed cables, looped wires, circuit breakers,
switches and fuses, locating cables in tight spaces, locating cables and cable
faults under or inside a surface such as a floor or a wall. Use with a 33 kHz
sonde: for locating non-conductive ducts with larger sondes, pinpointing
sondes inside exposed non-conductive ducts
Additional antennas or spares may be purchased separately. Other accessories or devices may
be sold together with CL43 Compact Locator or included in the kit. Refer to their corresponding
information for use.
2.4 Removing and inserting batteries
