Is there relaible device that can track hot 110V wires inside
sheetrocked walls? Where can I get it?


YES, they do make one. It finds/detects ONLY hot wires. It's mainly
used to check voltage at electrical boxes, outlets, and etc., but it
will detect through paneling and sheetrock.

It's called the Greenlee Voltage Detector, Cat. No. 1110 and can be
purchased at HD/Lowes in the electrical department.

The Greenlee is a good tool, and only $15 or so. But it generally won't
detect through paneling and sheetrock. You have to press it right up to
Romex to detect a hot. It will also buzz hot on neutral wires that are
connected to the panel. Keep a regular (neon type) voltage detector as a
backup. With these drawbacks in mind, it's still pretty good and a lot
easier to use (one hand operation, no chance of shorting a live circuit)
than a neon detector. Buy both, they're cheap.
