Tone Generators
Tone generators are essential electronic devices used to trace and identify cables or wire pairs within a group, especially in telephone, network, or other communication installations. These test and measurement devices work by sending a specific audio signal or “tone” through a wire, which can then be detected by a compatible probe or receiver, making it easy to locate breaks, shorts, or connections without damaging the insulation. A tone generator is particularly handy in environments where multiple cables are bundled together, and distinguishing them visually is impractical.
