Product Description
Product Overview

Locating faults in underground power cables can be challenging because the damaged section is often hidden beneath roads, industrial floors, or landscaped areas.

Sansion Power offers underground cable fault location solutions designed to support cable maintenance teams in identifying suspected fault distances, tracing cable routes, and pinpointing suitable fault types in the field.

Depending on the selected configuration, the system may combine TDR pre-location, high-voltage impulse testing, cable route tracing, and acoustic-electromagnetic pinpointing.

The objective is to help technicians narrow down the suspected fault area before repair work begins.

Testing Functions
  • Preliminary fault distance measurement.
  • Detection of applicable open-circuit and short-circuit faults.
  • Support for suitable low-resistance and high-resistance fault location methods.
  • Underground cable route tracing, when included.
  • Acoustic-electromagnetic pinpointing for compatible impulse-generated faults.
  • Cable sheath fault location with suitable optional equipment.
  • Fault waveform analysis and documentation, depending on the model.
Typical Applications
  • Underground distribution cables.
  • Industrial power distribution networks.
  • Commercial buildings and infrastructure.
  • Utility maintenance and emergency repair teams.
  • Power cable installation and acceptance projects.
  • Electrical maintenance contractors.
How Underground Cable Fault Location Works
  1. 1 Identify the cable and confirm its condition. Obtain the cable type, approximate length, rated voltage, and available circuit information.
  2. 2 Select a suitable pre-location method. Use TDR or another applicable method to estimate the distance to the suspected fault.
  3. 3 Trace the cable route. Where required, use a compatible cable route locator to establish the underground cable path.
  4. 4 Pinpoint the fault. For compatible fault types, use the appropriate pinpointing equipment to narrow down the physical location.
  5. 5 Confirm the fault and plan the repair. Follow site procedures and verify the suspected location before excavation or repair.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Can the equipment locate a cable buried underground?

Yes, suitable cable fault location equipment can support the investigation of underground cable faults. The exact method depends on the fault type, cable condition, accessibility, and selected system.

Q2: Can it identify the cable route and fault location at the same time?

These are different functions. A cable route locator traces the cable path, while a fault locator estimates or pinpoints the fault. Some systems combine both functions.

Q3: Will the equipment work on every underground cable?

Compatibility depends on cable construction, insulation type, voltage class, length, and fault characteristics. Please confirm these details before selecting a model.

Q4: Can it reduce excavation costs?

By narrowing the suspected fault area, a suitable system may reduce unnecessary excavation and investigation. Actual savings depend on site conditions and testing accuracy.
