I need to locate my underground pool electric because I have to dig footings nearby without hitting the wire/conduit. Will this work?

Yes, the tool can help you locate underground wires. To use this tool, you will need to shut down power and have a loose end of wire to connect too.

Will this work on broken wires on a truck 12v system?

I think it will be to powerful to work. Try a signal tracer tone generator used for telephone systems. Much better suited for your application.

This is picking up the common wire on my irrigation system, and not the individual valve wire, what am I doing wrong?

I used it to try to find sprinkler wiring in the ground. Might be that I am not using it properly but was unable to trace the wires.

Can detect 4 feet deep?
