In many situations, conventional fault location is impossible, for example when the electrical supply cannot be disconnected or the necessary fault location system is temporarily unavailable.
This is where the FaultSniffer enables you to locate the fault quickly without interupting the power supply.
How? It’s simple!
Each cable fault burns the insulating material. This produces gases which spread in the ground and can be measured even after days or weeks.
The FaultSniffer is optimised to locate these combustion gases, which are produced from any type of insulation material and therefore are a reliable indicator of the fault.
