Find Breaks Without Guesswork
Trace low-voltage buried wires up to 1000 ft with earphone-assisted signal detection
How to Use
- Ensure the cable you are testing is a compatible low-voltage wire and that the system is safely powered down before connecting the transmitter.
- Attach the transmitter leads to the wire loop or cable section you want to trace. For pet fence systems, isolate the boundary wire where possible for a clearer result.
- Switch on the transmitter, then use the receiver to sweep slowly over the suspected wire path in the garden.
- Listen for the signal through the built-in speaker or included earphones. A stronger, clearer tone usually indicates you are closer to the cable route.
- Follow the signal along the run and note any sudden drop, distortion or loss of tone, which may indicate a break, damaged section or change in cable depth.
- Repeat from the opposite end if needed to narrow the fault area before carrying out any careful inspection or digging.

What Our Customers Say
We used this to find a break in our dog fence wire after the lawn had been aerated. The earphones were genuinely helpful because the road outside is busy, and we found the damaged section in under an hour.
Arrived quickly and felt better organised than a lot of similar kits online. I bought it to trace an old low-voltage garden cable and the signal was easy to follow once I isolated the wire properly.
As someone who likes proper troubleshooting before calling anyone out, I found this very useful. It helped me confirm continuity problems on a boundary loop and narrow the fault to a short section near the hedge.
Good little buried wire locator and definitely saved me from digging the entire run. The only thing to note is that you need to move slowly and methodically to interpret the tone changes well.
I was looking at KOLSOL and TEMPO alternatives but chose this because the instructions were more relevant to pet fence wire testing. It found the likely break point in our back garden far faster than expected.
Bought it before putting in new fence posts because I wanted to know exactly where the old buried cable ran. It worked well, though on wetter soil the signal took a bit of practice to read.
Frequently Asked Questions
LanCablete was created for the practical jobs most households face but few brands explain properly: tracing a buried garden wire, finding a pet fence break, or working out where a low-voltage cable run actually goes before you start digging. We focus on straightforward tools that help ordinary homeowners solve these problems themselves, with clear guidance and dependable performance suited to UK gardens and small domestic plots.
Rather than overcomplicating cable tracing, we keep things practical. Our range is designed for common low-voltage troubleshooting tasks such as locating shallow buried boundary wires, checking continuity and narrowing down likely fault points after mowing, aeration, landscaping or weather damage. That means less guesswork, less unnecessary digging and fewer expensive engineer visits.
We know many shoppers comparing products online are deciding between generic imported kits from brands such as KOLSOL or TEMPO. LanCablete stands apart by speaking directly to UK use cases, especially pet fencing, garden boundary wire routes and homeowner-friendly fault-finding. We explain realistic depth expectations, step-by-step setup and safe intended use so you can buy with confidence.
From our UK-first support approach to fast dispatch and clear aftercare, everything we do is built around making buried wire tracing simpler for British customers. If you need a reliable way to locate a buried cable, trace a garden wire route or find a fence wire break, LanCablete is here to help you get the job done properly.
