The Tone & Probe Test and Trace Kit provides simple toning and tracing of non-energized wire. The easy-to-use tone generator traces wire when used with the included probe. Alligator clips are provided for unterminated wires and an RJ45 to RJ45 cable to tone or test data cables. The responsive probe is a tone tracer with a durable, non-metallic, conductive tip, a speaker with audible output and headphone jacks for use in noisy environments (headphones not included). The worklight on the probe illuminates dark spaces. The toner and probe together perform pin to pin wire map test.

About Manufacturer
Klein Tools is the result of one of those “happy accidents” that turn out to be revolutionary. Klein Tools famously got their start in 1857 when a linesman came to founder Matthias Klein to repair his broken pliers. Klein replaced the broken half and when the old half of the tool broke too, Klein forged a replacement for that, thus making the first Klein Linesman pliers. Since these humble beginnings, Klein Tools has grown and become one of the largest American made toolmakers and they’re a brand used by tradesmen, linesman and electricians all across America.
