Tone Generator help; active/non-active network?
I've been looking at 2 tone generators from Fluke Networks but I'm a bit confused as to the differences. Here are the 2 I'm looking at:
Fluke PRO3000 Tone and Probe Kit - $67.24 @ amazon.com
Fluke MT-8200-50A IntelliTone 100 Kit - $128.25 @ amazon.com
Both get good reviews but the cheaper one is designed to be used on non-active networks while the more expensive one can be used on active networks.
What exactly does that mean? Could the cheaper one cause problems/damage if used on an active network? Or does it just mean it is less effective on an active network?
