Phenix Technologies Canada Underground Cable Testing

Underground Cable Testing

This test set utilizes a very low frequency power supply for cable hi-potting along with DC supplies for fault burning and locating. The test set is capable of testing system feeders ranging from 4 kV through 33 kV and up to 25 microfarad cable capacitance load tested at maximum voltage.

AC VERY LOW FREQUENCY
CABLE FAULT LOCATOR

AMMETER CLEAR TEST SET

  • Used to determine if a feeder has any
    shorts or grounds applied

SAFETY SPARK GAP SYSTEM

  • Can be used in conjunction
    with Ammeter Clear Test Set
  • SG-6 is used when potential
    for back feed exists and to
    protect equipment but more
    importantly protect the worker

TRACING CURRENT
TRANSMITTER TEST SET

  • Used to perform continuity tests
    which prove the electrical path
    between two points on a feeder

PICK METHOD
TESTER/FAULT INDICATOR

  • Used to read sheath current
    (both magnitude and polarity)
  • Used for fault locating as well as
    pinpointing HV faults

GALVANOMETER/FAULT
DIRECTION INDICATOR

  • Used for measuring current by the deflection
    of a movable coil or a movable magnet
  • Used to locate fault locating tracing current
    on HV feeders
  • Used to positively ID feeders and
    phase markings (AØ, BØ, and CØ)

TELESCOPING STICK FOR PICKUP COIL, GALV-STK

  • Used to place both small or large pickup coils in man
    holes or other hard to reach location. Equipped with
    GALV extension cable.
