Cable Test Vans from KEP for Fast and Accurate Cable Testing and Fault Location

Cable Test Vans KEP
The progress in the power cable testing sector has equipped technicians with a range of high performance cable testing tools. Yet, despite the tendency for combining various testing techniques in one instrument, it is frequently the case that a complex of tools is required to tackle the job at hand. In these circumstances it is best to opt for a cable test van, like KEP’s ELT-Series test systems, which will ultimately help to save time and money, while facilitating effective fault location.

The ETL-Series cable test vans allow the user to carry out non-destructive diagnostics, testing and fault location on low and medium voltage power cables. These modular test systems comprise a thumper, a time domain reflectometer, and an audio frequency system, which gives the necessary flexibility in terms of choosing the most appropriate cable testing method. The fault location instruments integrated in the ETL test vans are from KEP’s product line and can be customized to the customer’s requirements.

The ETL-series test systems offer the most effective methods of power cable testing such as the acoustic thumping and TDR-based approaches. The latter include pulse echo (TDR), arc reflection (ARC), impulse current (ICE) and voltage decay (DCY).
Fault conditioning is achieved with the systems’ burning and arc reflection modes.

Fault pinpointing

One of the components of a KEP’s test van is the thumper, or a surge wave generator. In conjunction with the receiver P-900, it allows to effectively conduct acoustic cable fault pinpointing. Sheath faults can be pinpointed with either pulsed DC step-voltage or burning.

To facilitate cable route tracing and fault location, the test systems are equipped with an audio frequency generator.

Time domain reflectometry

Cable fault prelocation is achieved with the RIF-9 Time Domain Reflectometer, which can be operated either with the high contrast, high resolution touch-screen, or with the handy control knob. The RIF-9 can be used in the TDR mode; coupled with the system’s surge wave generator, it enables running tests in the modes of arc reflection, impulse current and decay.

The onboard memory stores test results and allows sending reports to a PC for further processing.

Audio frequency system

Utilizing the incorporated audio frequency generator (a 50 W LFG-50 or 200 W LFG-200), the ETL-Series test systems help solve the tasks of cable route tracing, fault location, depth measurement and cable identification. The LFG offers a choice of three frequency levels, 491 Hz, 982 Hz and 8440 Hz, and can be operated in a single or two-frequency modes. The load is adjusted automatically, with the overload trip interlock ensuring an even higher safety of operation.

In addition, the audio frequency system makes it possible to test a cable’s shield integrity and identify splices.

Safe operation

The ETL test systems comply with safety standards and integrate a system of interlocks, emergency stop, and key lock switch.

A vital component of the ETL safety is the earthing system delivered through operational, protective and auxiliary earth. To ensure proper operation, the ETL control unit monitors the voltage between protective and auxiliary earth as well as the resistance between operational and protective earth. The safety level is raised even further with the isolating transformer.

Also, the ETL systems incorporate overcurrent protection to make sure the object under test will not be damaged in case of the current exceeding the threshold value.

Augmented and mixed reality: what is it, and where is it going?

XR is a term that has become more prominent in the last few years. It encapsulates virtual, augmented, and mixed reality topics. The definition of each of these has become saturated in the past decade, with companies using their own definitions for each to describe their products. The new IDTechEx Report, “Augmented, Mixed and Virtual Reality 2020-2030” , distils this range of terms and products, compares the technologies used in them, and produces a forecast for the market next decade. This premium article discusses AR (augmented reality) and MR (mixed reality) in more detail. The report discusses 83 different companies and 175 products in VR (virtual reality), AR (augmented reality) and MR (mixed reality) markets. This promotional article specifically discusses the findings from this report of the augmented and mixed reality markets. Augmented Reality (AR) and Mixed Reality (MR) are two technologies which have become more prominent in the past ten years. AR is the use...

What is Active,Reactive and Apparent Power?

Active Power The power drawn by the load to do work is called the True power or Active power or real power. When electrical energy is fed to load the electrical energy gets converted into other forms of energy like thermal,mechnaical or chemical. Thus, the power actually consumed by electrical load is called the active power. A heater rated 220 volts, 400 watts consumes 400 watts when 220 volts is applied to its resistance element.The 400 watts power consumed by heater is the real power or active power. The active power is measured in kilo watt(kW) or MW. To calculate active power, the current flowing in phase with applied voltage is calculated.  The product of the voltage and the current in phase with the voltage gives the real power or active power.  Reactive Power The power which flows from the source to load and load to source is called the reactive energy. The reactive energy flows in both the direction. The reactive power is measured in kilo volts ampere reactive(kVAR) o...
