A circuit tracer system is an integral part of the entire power distribution network. However, the demand for circuit tracers has been reduced drastically due to the impact of COVID-19, which has negatively affected the power distribution network. Disruptions in the supply chain led to a decline in energy demand and new capacity installations. However, rising investments in renewable energy are expected to increase the demand for circuit tracers and reduce the impact of the pandemic on market growth. The market is expected to be driven by factors such as the timely identification of faults with circuit tracers, the growing demand for power, and the increasing demand for ethernet. The outbreak of COVID-19 has brought effects on many aspects, such as flight cancellations, travel bans, and quarantines.Furthermore, all indoor events were restricted in over forty countries, and a state of emergency was declared in several countries. Such factors resulted in the slowed growth of the circuit tracer market,causing falling business confidence, growing panic among the population, and uncertainty about the futureamong vendors.


The major factors driving the growth of the global circuit tracer marketarethe growing demand for energy efficiency and changing energy landscape.Countries across the world are aiming to develop their manufacturing sector by encouraging the adoption of automation and IoT technologies. Additionally, the rising volume of data generation is driving investments in the security and maintenance of data centers, consequently increasing the demand for circuit tracers, which creates growth opportunities for the market vendors. Leading vendors are engaging in price wars to sustain their presence in the global market, due to which the focus on new product development has decreased. Hence, the absence of notable product developments in the last few years will lead to slow growth of the market during the study period.


Global Circuit Tracer Market Segmentation
