Conduit Finder

Jm H

Does anyone know of a conduit finder that is made for tracing electrical conduit under a roof deck?

Jim,

We installed a roof on a church a couple of years ago, and ran into the same issue. I tried to get a sparky to use his equipment to locate conduit. He said no go because the nails in the existing roof shingles and decking would prevent a good reading.

We proceeded with the install , but the whole crew was cautioned to drive nails and screws with care. Building is still standing, so we must've dodged a bullet.

I have found that 6" screws are very good at finding conduits under the deck
