Safety is critical in the electrical trade. This episode shows how a multimeter and a circuit tracer protect you on the job and why verifying your tools before use is essential.

Learn quick checks for your multimeter, step-by-step voltage testing on outlets, and the correct technique for using a tracer to find hot cables and trace circuits back to junction boxes.

Follow proper PPE and breaker-isolation procedures, confirm zero voltage before working, and use tracers to locate live conductors in non-metallic and MC cable.
