16 kV portable cable fault location system Smart Thump ST16-20

Adiradh offers the Megger Smart Thump ST16-20, a 16 kV portable cable fault location system for underground medium-voltage power cables. The system combines cable testing, fault prelocation, and fault pinpointing in one unit. Therefore, technicians can use the ST16-20 for several steps in the cable fault finding process. In addition, the system delivers 1500 J at 8/16 kV and provides 20 kV DC proof and burn testing. Moreover, E-Tray guides users through the test process and helps them proof test, prelocate, and pinpoint cable faults. The system also supports ARC reflection, ICE prelocation, and ARM multi-shot technology. Furthermore, technicians can use earth-gradient methods for low-voltage fault locating and sheath fault locating. As a result, the Smart Thump ST16-20 provides a practical solution for utility, industrial, and cable service teams.

Overview

The Megger Smart Thump ST16-20 combines cable testing and fault location functions in one portable system. First, it provides 1500 J at 8/16 kV for cable fault location work. In addition, it provides 20 kV DC high-voltage proof and burn testing. Next, E-Tray guides the user through the test steps. Therefore, technicians can follow a clear process for proof testing, fault prelocation, and fault pinpointing. Moreover, the system supports ARC reflection and ICE for MV cable prelocation. It also uses multi-shot technology for the Arc Reflection Method. Furthermore, the ST16-20 supports earth-gradient low-voltage fault locating and sheath fault locating. As a result, technicians can select a suitable method for the cable and fault type. The system also suits typical MV distribution cable fault location work for 11 to 35 kV system voltage.

About Product

The Smart Thump ST16-20 brings several cable fault location functions into one portable unit. First, technicians can use the system for cable proof testing and fault testing. Next, they can use E-Tray to follow an automatic test sequence. In addition, the system can help prelocate faults with ARC reflection and ICE methods. For high-resistance faults, technicians can use ARM multi-shot technology as part of the fault location process. Moreover, the system supports sheath fault locating and earth-gradient fault locating. The 7-inch HiBrite colour display shows test information clearly. Furthermore, the system includes safety and grounding checks before testing. Users can also connect the system through its USB interface. Finally, the ST16-20 can operate from an AC line supply or battery, which gives technicians more choice when working in the field.

Technology & Benefits

The Smart Thump ST16-20 uses several methods to help technicians find underground cable faults. First, E-Tray guides the user through the main test sequence. Next, ARC reflection and ICE help with MV cable fault prelocation. In addition, multi-shot ARM technology supports fault location for suitable high-resistance cable faults. The system also provides earth-gradient methods for low-voltage fault locating. Furthermore, it supports sheath fault locating for cable sheath faults. Therefore, technicians can use different methods during different stages of cable fault investigation. The 1500 J output at 8/16 kV supports cable fault location work. At the same time, the 20 kV DC function supports high-voltage proof and burn testing. Moreover, the 7-inch HiBrite display shows test results and system information. As a result, technicians can carry out several cable testing and fault location tasks with one system.
