Detection of a cable short-circuit point
To detect of a cable short circuit point it is recommended to apply the double pole short-connection method for a de-energized circuit. In
case of multiple parallel wires, the parallel wires must also be connected to the negative interface of the transmitter. The circuit must be de-
energized.
1. Connect the short-circuited wires to the negative and positive interfaces of the transmitter correspondingly.
2. Press the Start/Pause button (10) on the transmitter to turn on the output signal. The receiver will automatically start tracing the high-
frequency signal to detect the cable location.
3. Place the receiver near the wire and move the receiver sensor along the wire to trace it. To locate the wire more accurately, lower the
sensitivity. The point, where the signal of the receiver suddenly attenuates and disappears, is the short-circuited point of the known
short-circuited wires.
!
This method is only used if the resistance of a short-circuited cable is below 200 kΩ.
!
Connect the known short-circuited wires to the positive interface of the transmitter to detect the short-circuited point.
Detection of a cable-break point
To detect a cable-break point, it is recommended to use the single pole connection method or the double pole connection method for a de-
energized circuit with the grounding of parallel wires.
Application of one transmitter
1.
Clamp the red alligator clip to the testing wire.
2.
Clamp the black alligator clip and the parallel wires to the effective grounding wire.
3.
Press the Start/Pause button (10) on the transmitter to turn on the output signal. The receiver will automatically start tracing the
high-frequency signal to detect the wire location.
4. Place the receiver near the wire and move the receiver sensor along the wire. The point, where the signal of the receiver suddenly
attenuates and disappears, is the open-fault circuit point (break point of the testing cable).
Application of two transmitters*
Use the single pole method.
1.
Connect the positive interface of Transmitter1 to one end of the testing wire and then connect the negative interface of this
transmitter to the grounding.
2.
Connect the positive interface of Transmitter 2 to the other end of the testing wire and then connect the negative interface of this
transmitter to the grounding.
3.
Other remaining parallel wires must be grounded as shown below.
