1. 
   For copper pipes(fresh water), we clip on to the copper and apply a small electrical charge to the pipe . This allows us to trace the "lit-up" pipe with a wand (it looks like a metal detector).
   
   For drain pipes(pvc, galvanized) we place a camera down the drain. The camera emmits a signal that we can pick with a sond (a receiver)>
