Can it use to find wires behind a cement wall?

I had bad experience with this equipment. I had a hard times finding studs behind single layer of sheet-rock. I'm not sure if it going to work on cement wall. Not this brand.

None that I know of other than going with a wireless invisible fence system. They do not require the boundary wire. Let me know if you need one. Good luck

Someone on here had a great idea of hiding it behind a picture! Something I never though of but would even be easy in this respect to hide the wire in the wall if you are super OCPD. Worth a try!

I detected metal pipes approx 5 or 6 inches below the ground. Have never used for "treasure" hunting, only wire and pipe locator and it worked great

The buried depth of the wire depends on local code and the pro-pointer probably isn't the right tool to find it.1) its detection depth is only a few inches2) the detection footprint is narrow, it is a pin pointer.3) it would be uncomfortable scanning any large area.4) you might be deceived into thinking there wasn't a buried run when in fact there was.

Any connector will work with this wire. Thedeciding factor will be the wallplate into which the connector is to be mounted.

This test kit is primarily designed to trace "unpowered" lines that are also not connected at the neutral or ground connections. The best way to work the test is to completely disconnect that line from the service panel. Black, white and bare wires. You can then safely connect the transmitter red wire to the black wire of the line to be located. You should also then connect the black wire from the transmitter to a good ground. I have used this exact kit to find many concealed wires over the last few months and it works great.

Yes. I mounted it on the back of my RV to see what is behind. will need a small coax cable for signal and a separate two wire cable for 12 vdc power.

You can trace a single wire BUT if you have any other wires near the single strand then they will probably pickup the signal as well. Make sure wire is not energized.

i would not know for sure but the purpose of this piece is to go directly into mud/cement in old walls. that being siad if t e tub surround is tight to the wall behind it I would give a shot. I think that is only way to be certain.

You will need to get a machine to cut through the cement in a thin line, place the wire, then cover it up with a putty made for cement. I don't remember the name of the putty. But I would not suggest letting the wire be stepped on over and over; it would soon quit working.

I have only used it to detect wooden studs behind gypsum board. I suggest you check it out at the manufacture's web site. Copy/paste this address in your browser's address bar: http://www.franklinsensors.com/products/prosensor_710.php

If you want to give it a professional look, then yes, but the wire is super thin so you can easily pass it under a door. I drilled a hole in my downstairs wall leading outside, ran the wire up the wall to the second floor, where i drilled another hole bringing it back into the house. Then I sealed the holes with some silicone to protect from small bugs and moisture. The thin wire is basically against the outside wall but is virtually unnoticeable.

The wire would be sturdy enough. My only concern would be if they can dig through underneath. Otherwise, I think it would work!

Yes, you could trace any wiring with this as long as you can disconnect the power from it, like your battery in this case.

Possibly... I used one on a security camera mounted about a hundred yards away, aimed at a bottom-tier DLink wireless router inside my house. I would think that a pair of the Keedox antennas aimed at each other should easily handle the distance. I guess the real question is just how much metal is in your concrete wall. If your wall is unreinforced concrete block construction, you probably won't have a problem. If the wall has a lot of reinforcing metal inside, there might not be any antenna that can help you.

Well my equipment is behind two walls and it works great. You just have to make sure the sensors are in the right spot.
