Read first: Safety Information
Understand and follow operating instructions carefully. Use the tracer only as specified in
this manual; otherwise, the protection provided by the tracer maybe impaired.
WARNING
To avoid electric shock, personal injury, or death, follow these instructions:
• Do not use if tracer appears damaged. Visually inspect the tracer to ensure the cases
are not cracked and back case is securely in place.
• Inspect and replace leads if insulation is damaged, metal is exposed, or probes are
cracked.
• Never use on circuits or systems that have voltages in excess of 600V AC/DC.
• Never use the tracer with a remote ground in patient care areas. Ground currents
generated by the tracer may create a shock hazard for electrically susceptible patients.
• Always test the remote ground system to confirm that its resistance is less than 100
ohms from remote ground to circuit neutral.
• Always check circuits to verify that the hot, neutral and ground are wired correctly.
• Do not use tracer if it operates abnormally as protection maybe impaired.
• Do not use during electrical storms or in wet weather.
• Do not use around explosive gas, dust, or vapor.
• Do not apply more than the rated voltage to the tracer.
• Do not use without the batteries and the back case properly installed.
• Remove the test leads from the circuit prior to removing the battery cap.
• Do not attempt to repair this unit as it has no user-serviceable parts except a fuse.
CAUTION
To protect yourself, think “Safety First”:
• Voltages exceeding 30VAC or 60VDC pose a shock hazard so use caution.
• Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses, face shields,
insulating gloves, insulating boots, and/or insulating mats.
• Never ground yourself when working on an electrical circuit.
• Always make the ground or neutral connection first, and remove last when using clip
leads or adaptor cord.

Introduction
The SureTrace™ Circuit Tracers are powerful, versatile, easy-to-use troubleshooting test
tools for finding breakers and hidden wire problems in residential/commercial/industrial
environments. These tracers work on closed (energized) and open (de-energized) circuits.
They identify circuit breakers, find opens and shorts, and trace wires behind walls.
The tracers are available in three configurations. Each kit contains the same transmitter
(TR-955) and test lead kit (TL-956). The 955 kit has a Receiver (RC-955) with a 7-digit LED
screen and a Hard Case (C-955). The 957 has a Receiver (RC-959) with a rotating, super-
bright OLED display and an AC/DC power indicator, and a Hard Case (C-955). The 959
also has the high-end Receiver (RC-959), adds an Inductive Clamp (IC-958) with Battery
Pack (BP-958), and a larger Hard Case (C-959).
Key Features
• Numeric value and variable audible for easy-to-understand tracing
• Super-bright display for easy-viewing
• Peak detecting bar graph for instantaneous changes in signal strength
• Identifies breakers and fuses
• Pinpoints opens and shorts
• Traces wires behind walls
• Can be used on de-energized/energized circuits from 0-600V AC/DC
• Will not affect GFCIs or other sensitive equipment on the line
• Low battery indicator
• Cat III-600V safety rating
