3.4 Locating and tracing of lines, lateral circuit branches, sockets, switches and
junctions in house installations circuits (one-pole application)
When locating and tracing of lines, sockets,
switches and junctions in house installations
circuits, the circuits must be dead; Neutral
line and ground must be connected and
fully operational; Connect transmitter to
phase and neutral according to figure 4; and
Carry out this example as described in the
application example.
Note:
If the supply cable fed with the signal via
the transmitter is located, e.g. Directly in parallel to other conductors (e.g. cable duct),
or if these conductors are crossed, the signal is also input into the other conductors. The
fuse must be removed during this example.
The switching with button 4 from "LEVEL I" to "LEVEL III" the sensitvity of Distance is
increased up to a factor of 5.
Setup: manual mode, minimal sensitivity. Tracing depth max. 2 meters.
3.5 Locating of line interruptions in the plastic-sheathed cable (one-pole
application)
When locating of line interruptions, the circuit must be dead; All lines which are not
required must be connected to the auxiliary ground in accordance with figure 8; Connect
transmitter to one lead and to an neutral
according to figure 5; and Carry out this example
as described in the application example.
The ground connected to the transmitter should
be earth from an earthed socket or a water
pipe which is properly earthed. When tracing
line interruptions in multicore cables, not that
all remaining leads in plastic-sheathed cable
or conductor must be grounded in accordance
with the regulations. This is required to avoid

crosscoupling of the fed signal (by a capacitive effect to the source terminals). The
tracing depth for sheathed cable and conductors are different, as the individual leads in
the sheathed cable are twisted around themselves. The transition resistance of a line
interruption must be higher than 100 kOHM. The verification of resistance can be carried
out by any multimeter.
Note:
The switching with button 4 from "LEVEL I" to "LEVEL III" the sensitvity of Distance is
increased up to factor 5.
Tracing depth max. 2 meters.
Setup: manual mode, minimal sensitivity

3.6 Locating of line interruptions using two transmitters (one-pole application)
When locating a line interruption using one transmitter to feed from one conductor end,
the location of interruptions may not be precisely located in case of bad conditions due to
a field disturbance. The drawbacks described above can easily be avoided when using two
transmitters (one from each end) for line interruption detection. In this instance, each of
the transmitters are set to a different line code (e.g. transmitter one to code "1", the other
transmitter to code "2"). A second transmitter with a different line code is not included
within the scope of supply and, therefore, has to be ordered separately.
If the transmitters are connected in accordance with the figure 12, the receiver indicates
"3" at the left side of the line interruption. If you continue further than the interruption,
towards the right, the receiver displays "7". If you are directly above the interruption,
no line code is displayed, due to the overlapping of both transmitter signals. The line
interruption is located exactly in the middle between the displayed line codes "3" and "7".
Requirements:
• The current circuit must not be live.
• All lines not being used must be connected to the auxiliary ground as shown in the figure.
• Connect both transmitters as shown in the figure.
• Proceed as described in the application example.
