Cable & Phase ID

True Phase Identification System with GPS Synchronization

SPI-III’s unique design consists of a wireless bi-module combo that is easy to configure and operate. It enables field applications such as identification of A-B-C electrical phases from all 50 and 60 Hz networks, switchgear phase concordance (matching), phase rotation, system paralleling, underground phasing applications and more.

• Annotations

The VCi-3 system is designed for cable and phase identification, mainly for installation or maintenance purposes on three-phase electrical networks during power shutdowns.

The transmitter module injects a low current on the cable conductors by direct contact or magnetic clamps methods. A voice message is recorded by the user and will be transmitted along with digital signals. Groundings stay connected at both ends of the three-phase circuit during the test. The detector module is used at the other end of the cable system.

Features

• Unique balanced injection system that eliminates signal bleeding on other wires
• Three different frequencies to identify each phase
• Easy to install and operate
• Extended range: up to 10 km (6 miles) of working distance
• Tone transmission for more than 8 hours
• Lightweight and compact
• Optional magnetic sensing transducer
• Phase detection by transmitter tone presence or absence
• Digital filtering of network harmonics
• Unique dual grounded method

The LCI system is intended for energized cable identification on secondary and primary circuits. This innovative solution features a dual frequency technique that eliminates false identifications. The LCI is designed to be easy to use, safe for the user and cost-effective.

Features

• Dual frequency efficient technique
• Easy to install and operate
• The safest technique on the market
• Transmission on live cables
• Detection by digital processing
• High-resolution detection frequencies
• Single or three phase applications

The CFR-60 design allows for convenient single-phase cable fault pre-location. It is used in combination with a surge voltage generator on low, medium and high voltage cables from 0 – 65 km long.

Features

• Fault location on cables up to 65 km
• SIM/MIM Secondary/Multiple Impulse Method, ICM method & Decay method
• High resolution (200 MHz sampling rate)
• Voltage-proof up to 400 V
• Integrated memory for up to 100 measurements
• Ideal even for cables with difficult access
