AEMC Model 6683 Cable Verification & Tracing Analyzer

See What's Hidden. Trace it. Verify it. Fix it.

The AEMC^® Model 6683 Cable Verification & Tracing Analyzer is easy to use and quickly locates, traces, and verifies electrical cables, conductors, and metal water or heating pipes — even when they're buried or hidden behind walls, floors, and ceilings. With a dedicated transmitter/receiver pair, large backlit LCDs, NCV (non-contact voltage) detection and flexible connection modes, you get precision detection, clear feedback, and built-in safety so electricians, facility teams, and service technicians can safely pinpoint faults fast and keep systems running.

If voltage is present, the transmitter warns of the danger and indicates its value. The transmitted signal is digitally coded to avoid interference, and its power can be adjusted manually to fine-tune detection.

In complex cases, the identification code configuration allows up to 7 transmitters to be used simultaneously.

The receiver is equipped with a built-in light, a silent mode and automatic or manually adjustable sensitivity settings for greater selectivity to suit all situations on site. The receiver can also be used on its own to locate a live conductor connected to the active conductor (phase) of the electricity distribution network.

Main Applications

Data Centers & Telecom: Trace power and communication lines in dense racks and trays, find faults in control and signal wiring, and verify which runs are live before moving or adding equipment.
Electrical Contractors & Facility Maintenance: Identify which breaker feeds which outlet, follow hidden cable routes in walls and ceilings, locate junction boxes or buried conductors, and track down cable damage without tearing everything open.
Plumbing & Heating / Underfloor Systems: Locate metal pipes in walls or concrete and troubleshoot underfloor heating by running a conductor through the pipe path and tracing it with the receiver.
