Remember safety first... Always ground out first before you directly connect to the meter set.

What’s the name of the backpack used to carry the transmitter?? And does it also have a slot for the receiver?

Whatever the cable tech used to mount their ground wire to the hydro meter, take that if you can’t find a magnet.

Where do you get that cable (black ground) on a spool, with that clamp?
I occasionally have to do emergency locates and need to clamp to the (water) valve key (in the street) and there is no where to put the ground, so I just end up hooking up to the nearest hydrant. This "trick" would be very helpful. Thanks
