PILOT CABLE FAULT DETECTION SYSTEM
TNBR has developed a Pilot Cable Fault Detection System to identify the accurate location of underground pilot cable fault. This system principle is based on an Intelligent and field-proven system that accurately detects the location of underground supervisory control cable (pilot cable) faults, while significantly reducing downtime and costs of maintenance.

Key Features & Benefits
The System principle is based on the high-frequency pulse injection and radiation of the electromagnetic waves (radio waves) concepts
System includes a frequency generator and a completely functional handheld receiver.
Accurately detect underground pilot cable faults (Open & short circuit faults) location
Significantly reduce the time of pin-pointing underground pilot cable fault
Saving costs of locating underground pilot cable fault location.
Problem
The current method of locating pilot cable faults relies heavily on manual inspection, causing a time-consuming and inefficient process with a high risk of human error. This leads to prolonged downtime and increased repair costs, making it crucial to find more efficient and accurate solutions.
Potential Applications
Maintenance works of underground pilot cable - Precisely recommends the correct location of faults (Open & short circuit faults) to the owner for excavation and maintenance process.
