Zircon Breaker ID Pro 300 - Circuit Breaker Finder Kit Manual

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

ZIRCON^® CIRCUIT BREAKER FINDERS WORK BY SENSING AN ELECTRONIC SIGNAL FROM THE TRANSMITTER.

TROUBLESHOOTING & CONSTRUCTION TIPS

Receiver

Transmitter

Accessories
Not Shown: Carrying/Storage Case

In no event may the Breaker ID Pro Transmitter be used where the voltage across the Transmitter exceeds 300 V AC, as this will cause failure of the device with consequent damage beyond repair.

INSTALL BATTERY

1. Remove the Receiver battery cover by lifting (a) and sliding (b) as shown.
   NOTE: If the clip is too tight to move easily, use a flat-head screwdriver to gently pry open.
   
   
2. Slide a new 9V alkaline battery into the compartment, terminals first, matching + and − on the battery with markings in the compartment.
3. Slide the cover back on the Receiver until it snaps in place.
   

LOCATE A CIRCUIT

In a three-phase application, the Transmitter may be connected between any power line and neutral, or from line to line not to exceed 300 V AC, in both wye and delta type power configurations.

1. Attach the appropriate Accessory(ies) to the Transmitter. (Figure A)
   
   
2. Connect the Transmitter to the circuit to be identified. The Red LED will blink approximately five seconds then glow solid to indicate the Transmitter is functioning and the circuit is live.
3. At the circuit panel, turn the Receiver to ON.
4. Holding the Receiver at an angle that gives maximum contact between the Contact Area and the breaker, slowly scan all breakers. (Figure B)
   
   The Contact Area must touch each breaker during the scan. The first scan calibrates the tool. During first scan, the Receiver may indicate more than one breaker. This is normal. If there is more than one panel, perform this step on each panel without turning the Receiver off.
5. Perform a second pass over the breakers to identify the breaker that corresponds with the outlet where the Transmitter is plugged in.
   When the green LED glows and the buzzer sounds, the Receiver is directly over the breaker for the outlet where Transmitter is plugged in.
   Note:
   Some circuit boxes are mounted with breakers oriented vertically. See Figures C and D for proper Receiver orientation for horizontally or vertically oriented breakers.
   
   
6. Once the correct breaker is identified, turn it off and label the breaker for future reference.
7. With the Transmitter still plugged in, verify that the Red LED on the Transmitter is off, indicating a dead circuit, before beginning work.

TRACE THE CIRCUIT FOR A LIGHT FIXTURE

Screw the Light Socket Adapter into the socket where a bulb would normally go, then plug the Transmitter into the Adapter.

STORE THE TOOL

Before storing, use a dry cloth to clean the parts.
Do not expose the tool to liquids.
