Martindale FD550 Elite Fuse Finder

Don't want to waste time turning circuit breakers on and off or taking out fuses to find which one powers a particular circuit? With Martindale's FD550 kit, you don't have to!

Supplied with both a transmitter and a receiver, the FD550 kit identifies which fuse/circuit breaker is assigned to a particular circuit with ease. To use, simply plug the transmitter into a standard live 13A mains socket. Once done, use the digital receiver to scan the board to quickly identify the right breaker (the receiver uses a combination of an audible tone and an LED bargraph indicator to let you know when the strongest signal is detected).

Martindale FD550 Elite Fuse Finder

The receiver has two modes: manual and automatic. In both modes, sweep the receiver at a right angle across the board, passing over each breaker. In manual mode, you should find the strongest signal, then press the 'SET' button; doing so causes the receiver to filter out weaker signals, allowing you to confirm the right breaker. In automatic mode, weaker signals are autoamtically ignored (ideal for when signals are confusing due to coupling between circuits).

Once you've found the right breaker, switch it off. You can confirm it's the right one by checking on your transmitter - it will have stopped working if you've found the right breaker or fuse!
