hi all, there is a portable , handheld device[ like an ammeter] that will allow you to follow a wire thru a bundle of wires by attaching one end to the wire inside the conductor. then the device will pick out the wire in a bundle. what is this thing called, please?

That would be a tick tracer.

A tick tracer is used to detect voltage by induction. I believe that what he is looking for is a Toner. A toner is a 9 volt powered signal generator with 2 leads to clip to the conductor and a ground/ The other half is an inductive amplifier that picks up the signal usually a DeeDO "tone" Quite useful on telephone back boards and any place else you are trying to pick a conductor out of a rat's nest.
