A Ferret is a small compact multipurpose wireless inspection camera and cable pulling tool that allows the user to see and access dark, hard to reach spaces and find and pull in cables easier, faster, and safer. You can attach it to a glow rod or fish stick and the Ferret slides easily into tight spaces, wall cavities, ceilings, under floors or anywhere where access is hard to reach, and visibility can be difficult for the electrical contractor and for other trades.
The Ferret Plus features include built-in (on board) memory and the first ever non-contact voltage detector that is not handheld to help detect live cables from a greater reach than ever before. It comes in a compact case with a variety of accessories to support user flexibility and functionality.
This is a perfect tool for someone who loves having the latest technology to make work easier, faster, and safer. The Ferret Plus is ideal for pulling cables in faster and for supporting visual inspections, cable installations, maintenance, and repair work. This multi award-winning Ferret Plus model provides the ultimate innovation in inspection camera and cable pulling technology. Read more about the Ferret Plus: bit.ly/3WhFGLR
