How can I detect if there are any electrical wiring or panels behind dry wall?
I need to drill a hole in some dry wall and mount an anchor hook to hang a 30+lb fire extinguisher. I am concerned about any electrical wiring or panels behind the dry wall. Any suggestions are appreciated.
Answer:
Some of the newer stud finders on the market have a hot electrical wire locator built in.
e.g. http://www.licensedelectrician.com/Store/ZR/i700_Stud_Finder.htm
Take a trip to your favorite hardware/lumber center and see what they have available.
I know my next stud finder purchase will probably include this option.
Regards!
