Features
Work independently
When used independently, only one test wire is needed to achieve testing of the full length (broken wire), joints, and low impedance fault distance of the power cables.
Principle
It’s based on the radar principle and makes use of the fact that any sudden deviations in the characteristic impedance of a cable reflect part of the energy transmitted into the cable. The degree of reflection is dependent on the magnitude of the deviation in the characteristic impedance, the number of reflections, the cable length and the distance to the fault position.
Work with surge generator (Thumpers)
When combined with a surge generator and suitable separation devices, the WL20 supports multiple HV prelocation methods (e.g., ARM, ICE etc.). Its adaptive trigger technology ensures optimal timing of TDR measurements for most accurate results.
