## Overview

The Ideal Electrical SureTrace Plus Circuit Tracer (61-948) is a professional-grade, ETL Certified CAT III tool designed for fast, accurate tracing and troubleshooting of electrical systems up to 600V AC/DC. Featuring dual high-visibility displays including a patented TightSight bottom screen, built-in NCV voltage detection, DC polarity indication, and a patent-pending continuity test, it streamlines diagnostics without needing extra testers. Its CertainCircuit technology alerts users to energized circuits remotely, making it an indispensable, efficient tool for electricians and technicians working in complex environments.

## Description

The SureTrace Plus Circuit Tracer provides fast and accurate breaker, conductor, and fault finding on energized/de-energized electrical systems, including 3-Phase. Leave your second tester behind and perform basic troubleshooting tasks using the transmitter’s patent-pending auto continuity tester, voltage indication (24 to 600V AC and 12 to 600V DC), and DC polarity indication features. Easily trace circuits and locate breakers in all positions and low-light conditions using the integrated work light and the receiver's dual high-visibility displays — a patented TightSight secondary display and 180° rotating main display. You can also check for the presence of AC voltage from 24 to 600 VAC usng the receiver's built-in NCVT. Troubleshoot without the need for a second person using advanced CertainCircuit technology that alerts you when the circuit is energized or de-energized at the panel and at the other end of the circuit. With a CAT III 600V rating, the SureTrace Plus Circuit Tracer is your fast, accurate circuit troubleshooting solution on both energized and de-energized systems.

Review: Great tool. Only a step or two below the $1500 version. - Great for the money, not as stable as the big brother. I've used the $1500 version and this one. The more expensive one is definitely better but this one is good enough. This one is more excitable than the calm big brother. I actually have to turn down the sensitivity a lot most of the time. It'll give me a false positive initially and I have to wait a split second before it'll calm down and give the accurate reading. It may not be as pinpoint accurate as the two-receiver version but I'm OK with that. This one is accurate enough. The ability to trace a dead circuit has saved me days worth of time.
Review: I've used them all, this is the best!!! - I have 50yr experience as a professional electrician, I have used many different types and brands of signal tracers, the tech today is so much better. I'm really impressed with all the capabilities of this TR-948! I've been using someone else's Klein ET450 for awhile now and decided I was gonna buy one for myself, but first I wanted to see what else was available. I started out reading and watching you tube video reviews on different tracers, then to the testing reports...etc. This ideal sure trace TR-948 came up as the top rated tracer for it's accuracy, it's ability to auto check continuity and having a view screen in the bottom really does make it easier to see results while scanning over wiring, breakers...etc. First thing I noticed was when I turned the receiver over, the display flipped over as well to stay legible, that's the first time I've ever seen this function on a electrical tool. The NCV tip of the receiver does very well at detecting induced and live electrical voltage and the flashlight function is also another bonus when scanning in dark boxes, panels...etc. This Ideal Suretrace 948 is the best I've ever used, so much more accurate than the Klein I've been using lately, oh and another thing is it's more efficient with batteries! You will not be disappointed... get yourself one!

## Features

- RELIABLE TRACING: Detect breakers, conductors, fuses, dead shorts, and splice errors in all electrical systems up to 600V AC/DC, including 3-phase, with speed and accuracy using this ETL Certified CAT III circuit tracer
- LIGHTEN YOUR TOOLBELT: Identify shorted conductors, determine voltage levels, and detect AC voltage — no second tester needed — when using the new patent-pending transmitter features and receiver with a built-in NCVT
- VOLTAGE INDICATORS: Transmitter indicates DC polarity and eight different voltage levels between 24V to 600V AC and 12V to 600V DC
- CONTINUITY TEST: Transmitter features a patent pending built-in continuity test, eliminating the need for a second tester when searching for wiring faults
- HIGH-VISIBILITY DISPLAYS: Easily view readings in tight spaces and at tough angles thanks to the receiver’s two high-visibility displays, including a 180° rotating main display and a patented TightSight bottom display
