UHV-500 cable fault locator is a portable diagnostic instrument for locating and characterizing faults in power and communication cables. It detects low- and high-resistance faults, short/open circuits, leakage and flashover faults, and provides waveform and distance measurements.
Applications and uses
Test and locate faults on power cables (1 kV–35 kV), telephone cables, FM communication cables and coaxial cables; detect shorts on metallic overhead lines, grounding faults, high-resistance leakage, high-impedance flash-over, cable disconnection and poor contacts; measure cable length and signal propagation velocity for maintenance and line diagnostics.
Fully sealed metal case; compact and lightweight; suitable for inrush current generators, laser equipment, lightning rod test equipment and similar lines.
Parameters/standard: GB/T4704-92; ambient temperature -40 °C–55 °C; rated voltage 1 kV–15 kV; nominal capacitance 0.1 μF–8 μF; tolerance ±5%/±10%; loss tangent ≤ 0.01; insulation resistance ≥ 2000 Ω; withstand voltage 1.1UR–1.5UR.
Dry-type AC test transformer (GTB-3kVA/50kV)
Compact, low-maintenance design with reliable insulation and built-in over-current protection.
Example specification: capacity 3 kVA; high voltage 50 kV; high current 60 mA; low-voltage input 200 V; size 330 × 280 × 510 mm.
Features and highlights
Detects faults using low-voltage pulse and high-voltage pulse flash-over methods; can locate flash-over faults without burning through cables.
High precision A/D sampling up to 100 MHz, enabling 1 m reading resolution and 1 m blind-zone detection.
Large LCD displays waveform and data; dual-trace display and waveform comparison; adjustable transmission speed for different cable types; non-volatile storage retains waveform/data; built-in rechargeable battery for portable field use.
