The Metrel A1005 Locator is a handheld non-contact cable locator designed for UK electricians, maintenance engineers and fault-finding technicians who need to quickly trace energised conductors or identify the presence of capacitive or inductive fields. It works alongside Metrel testing instruments to help locate wiring routes, confirm cable paths and detect live circuits without touching exposed conductors.
How does the A1005 stand out in everyday use?
The A1005 provides fast detection of buried or concealed wires, helping electricians trace circuits behind walls, inside trunking or within ceiling spaces. Its simple START button and CAP/IND indicators make it ideal for quick checks during installation or maintenance.
