Cable Fault and Test System Vans

Megger Group Ltd.

Whether you are working on-site, in the countryside or an urban environment, having the right equipment available when conducting fault location operations is vital. When the correct tools can be accessed easily, fault-location time speeds up dramatically, and faults can be dealt with more efficiently. Megger’s range of cable test vans offer solutions to the challenges of fault location in the real world, no matter the environment. Our test van systems have been developed in collaboration with end users to ensure that they live up to the standards of daily fieldwork. Our vans are designed to be adaptable to the end users needs so that the most appropriate tests may be carried out for the cable in question, regardless of whether it is low, medium or high voltage.

Cable Test and Diagnostics

Megger Group Ltd.

Cable testing and diagnostics provides information about the cable’s global condition (e.g. the cable’s overall insulation system), and will reveal localised problems, such as poor joints and terminations; it will also reveal localised weak spots in the insulation. Various cable tests are carried out to spot potential failures before they can cause severe outages. Megger cable test equipment provides access to all of the technology needed to make informed cable management decisions through the different stages of the cable’s life cycle.

Cable Route Tracing and Identification

Megger Group Ltd.

Cable pinpointers and fault locators from Megger make the process of cable route tracing and identification quicker and more accurate. These pinpointing systems are portable for everyday fieldwork and provide services from power and telecoms to water, rail and gas utilities. HV and LV buried cables can be traced to a depth of up to 5m.

Cable Sheath Fault Location

Megger Group Ltd.

Locating cable sheath faults is one of the last steps in cable testing, occurring after you have identified the existence of a cable fault via the identification procedure based on your specific site variables and the type of system you are working on

Earth Fault Location

Megger Group Ltd.

Detecting cable earth faults in critical signal and supply systems is essential in critical applications such as railway installations, hospitals, power plants or other industrial facilities. By using a low frequency signal, inductive sensors and compensating signal, users can be guided to any cable short to ground.

Thumpers and Cable Fault Location

Megger Group Ltd.

Cable testing can be broken down to different steps of the process, starting with a time domain reflectometer test to look for an incident signal on the line or, in some high resistance situations, VLF testing. These tests will identify a fault, allowing you to move on to pre-locating it. In some low resistance faults this will occur alongside the identification via the TDR.

UHF PD Detector

Megger Group Ltd.

Handheld online PD substation surveying system. The UHF PD Detector is the ideal tool for quick, non-invasive surveys in MV and HV substations and should be part of the toolkit for all maintenance and service teams. Due to its high measurement bandwidth, the UHF method provides accurate local online partial discharge (PD) measurements on HV components such as cable end-terminations, surge arrestors, voltage transformers and isolators.
