ps:

One of my devilish tricks it to hand someone a GFCI tester... you
know the one with the test button that you push to check the outlet
for bugs? Tell the new apprentice to go to every outlet, plug in the
tester, write down the results, and wait to see if he trips a circuit
breaker after accidently pushing the "test" button. >:-}

Seriously, though... both the above and the following Greenlee item
is important for bug sweeps, and it will help you detect outlets that
have had eavesdropping devices installed as the bugging device will
sometimes flip out the GFCI tester and you will get a faulty outlet
indication, just do not try to trip the GFCI circuit.
