Ideal Industries 62-144 Tone Probe Wire Identifier

Product Description

The IDEAL INDUSTRIES 62-144 is a tone probe wire identifier designed for tracing and identifying individual conductors, cables, and wires within a bundle or conduit. The probe detects an audio tone signal placed on a wire by a compatible tone generator, allowing technicians to quickly pinpoint the correct circuit without energizing the line. This tool is a staple for electricians, low-voltage installers, and data or telecom cabling professionals working in panels, junction boxes, and structured wiring enclosures.

The 62-144 is suited for residential and light commercial applications where wire tracing is a routine part of service and installation work. Common use cases include identifying telephone pairs, network cables, alarm wiring, and other low-voltage conductors that share a conduit or cable bundle. It is sold as an individual unit and is typically used alongside a separate tone generator to complete the trace workflow.

Key Features

• Detects audio tone signals on conductors for fast, accurate wire identification
• Designed for low-voltage cable tracing including telecom, data, and alarm wiring
• Compact probe form factor for use in tight panels and junction boxes
• Sold as a single unit for use with a compatible tone generator

Compatibility

Designed for use with compatible tone generators for low-voltage wire tracing applications in residential and light commercial electrical and cabling systems.

Installation Notes

This tool is used by licensed electricians and low-voltage cabling technicians. Always confirm that circuits are de-energized before probing conductors in live panels. The probe is intended for use on unpowered or signal-level conductors only. Follow applicable NEC guidelines for low-voltage wiring identification and service procedures.
