aFe Power 77HP2 Tone and Probe Kit
The aFe Power 77HP2 is a tone generator and probe kit designed for telecommunications technicians and network engineers who trace and identify cables. It handles line tracking, short-circuit testing, and clear/busy/ringing status recognition on telephone and data wiring. The kit includes both generator and inductive amplifier probes for complete circuit verification.
Clamp-style probe with 30 dB gain
The probe uses a clamp measurement mode that allows non-contact tracing on non-terminated cables without damaging insulation. Its professional plastic carbon-fibre test head prevents accidental shorts while the nominal 30 dB gain and 100 MΩ input impedance provide sensitive signal detection. Adjustable volume and a built-in speaker give immediate audible feedback during tracing tasks.
Operates on two 9 V batteries
The unit requires two 9 V batteries (NEDA 1604, JIS 006P, or IEC 6LR61) which are not supplied, so users must source them separately. Selectable continuous or variable tone generation simplifies one-button operation for quick cable identification. The tester functions within a 0–50 °C temperature range for use in varied indoor environments.

Questions about this item
What input impedance does the probe present to the circuit under test?
The probe input impedance is nominal 100M Ohm, so it loads the line very lightly while tracing or identifying faults.
What are the exact dimensions of the probe for tool-bag space planning?
The probe measures approximately 231 x 55 x 28 mm (9.1 x 2.2 x 1.1 in) and weighs about 300 g (10.6 oz).
How do I power the kit for the first trace, and what mistake should I avoid?
Install two 9 V batteries (NEDA 1604, JIS 006P or IEC 6LR61) — not included — and never connect the unit to a line carrying strong current.
