Review: This Sperry Instruments CS550A Circuit Breaker Finder is awesome! - Since desertcart often mixes products, this review is on the Sperry Instruments CS550A Circuit Breaker Finder. I understand Sperry's paper conservation efforts but they really should include a little something more in the package to avoid all the 1-star reviews. While some tools calibrate automatically, you have to calibrate the CS550A manually. With the transmitter plugged into an outlet (or light socket adapter ASIN: B002DN6QX2) and the pistol grip receiver switched on and trigger firmly held in, slowly pass over the center of breakers top to bottom, left column, then right, until there's no more beeping from the receiver. This takes mostly two passes but sometimes just 1 or even 3. Then, release the trigger and slowly scan over the center of the breakers again with the trigger released. Don't be tempted to pull the trigger during the final scan! The black arrow will point to the correct breaker. A really handy feature is you can turn the breaker off and listen for absence of the transmitter beep to verify you have located the correct breaker. Using this procedure, I got NO false positives and the tool (with one exception) always identified the correct breaker. Often I had a hard time believing the tool, however, by actually turning off the identified breakers and listening for the absence of the transmitter beep to verify, I located a total of 8 mislabeled breakers out of 24! Great job electrician and shame on the city inspector. No wonder I was so confused every time I worked on something electrical! The one breaker the tool had trouble identifying was the one I was most interested in identifying. I guess I've now identified what's on it by process of elimination! This circuit has a home theater, a TV, a cable modem, a WiFi router, a VOIP box, 2 network switches, an HDHomeRun tuner, 4 Western Digital NAS drives, a Synology NAS drive, a remote start fireplace, ceiling lights, nook light, porch light, and several wall outlets with fans plugged in. The tool did identify this breaker from the nook & porch lights and from the outlets located furthest from the electronics. I'm sure it would have done better if I'd have wanted to shut down the NAS drives but then I'd hoped to avoid that by purchasing the tool. Observations: 1) The tool has trouble with heavily loaded circuits. Unplug heavy loads (fans, heaters, hairdryers, etc.) and turn off any incandescent lights that might also be on the same circuit you're testing. 2) The tool seems to remember the previous calibration setting. You have to turn it off and recalibrate each time you move the transmitter. 3) The tool seems to remember the previous calibration settings even if you just flick the power off and back on. It works best if you switch it off, go move the transmitter, switch back on, and recalibrate. 4) OK, it's cheap plastic and you have to furnish your own 9v battery but it cost just over $20 and it works great!

(But read the OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Model CS-550A CIRCUIT BREAKER FINDER) *by L***R on November 6, 2021* Model CS-550A CIRCUIT BREAKER FINDER I intended to write an unfavorable review because it doesn't work more than about 20 feet from the transmitter. Then I read the Amazon review by William G. Finley. Search the Internet for the "OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Model CS-550A CIRCUIT BREAKER FINDER" PDF. Read Step 4) LOCATING A CIRCUIT BREAKER". It worked great after I followed the instructions. Four stars for neither an intuitive tool nor clear instructions. This is Step 4 from the online instructions: "4) LOCATING A CIRCUIT BREAKER (figure 3): 1. With the transmitter plugged into an AC outlet to go the circuit breaker panel and open the cover. 2. Turn on the receiver and place target on the tip firmly against the first circuit breaker in the panel. 3. Press and hold the calibration switch while moving the receiver across the circuit breakers. 4. When the receiver responds to a circuit breaker stop movement until the receiver stops responding, then continue moving the receiver to the next breaker. 5. During the calibration process the receiver may respond to more than one of the circuit breakers in the panel, each time this occurs wait for the receiver to stop responding before moving to the next circuit breaker. 6. After scanning all the circuit breakers in the panel release the calibration switch and rescan the circuit breakers. 7. Only one breaker will now produce a response in the receiver. 8. While continuing to hold the receiver against this breaker turn off the breaker, this will remove power to the remote transmitter and the receiver will cease producing a response. This confirms that the transmitter is no longer receiving power. 9. Turn off receiver; additionally this resets the calibration circuit if another scan is desired. 10. Always confirm that power to the outlet has been removed by noting the absence of sound and light when in the presence of the transmitter. 11. Unplug transmitter when not in use ## Frequently Bought Together - Sperry Instruments CS550A Circuit Breaker Finder, Quickly Locate AC Circuits/Fuses, Visual LED, Plug Style Transmitter/Auto-Sensing Receiver, 120V AC, Yellow - Sperry Instruments STK001 Non-Contact Voltage Tester (VD6504) & GFCI Outlet / Receptacle Tester (GFI6302) Kit, Electrical AC Voltage Detector, Yellow & Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/10938836-cs550a-circuit-breaker-finder](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/10938836-cs550a-circuit-breaker-finder) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
