Using advanced high-voltage flashover testing technology, engineers pinpointed the fault at 172 meters with precision, enabling rapid repair and minimizing production downtime for the affected manufacturing facilities. Fault Background The industrial zone, which hosts numerous automotive component and electronics manufacturing plants, experienced a sudden power disruption on April 2, 2026. Initial inspection by the site maintenance team identified abnormal readings on the 10kV feeder cable, prompting an urgent call to XZH TEST's diagnostic team for professional fault location services. The affected cable — a YJV-8.7/10 3×240mm² XLPE-insulated power cable — is a critical link supplying electricity to multiple production lines. With manufacturing schedules at risk, rapid and accurate fault location was essential. Diagnostic Procedure and Technical Findings Upon arrival, XZH TEST engineers conducted a systematic diagnostic protocol to characterize the fault and determine its precise location: Test Parameter Result Cable Type YJV-8.7/10 3×240mm² Insulation Resistance (Phase A–Ground) 0.03 MΩ (at 169V) Insulation Resistance (Phase B–Ground) 0.04 MΩ (at 155V) Insulation Resistance (Phase C–Ground) 0.01 MΩ (at 146V) Fault Classification Leakage-type low-resistance fault Cable Length (Low-Voltage Pulse) 177 m (all three phases) Fault Distance (High-Voltage Flashover) 172 m (at 28 kV) The initial insulation resistance test, performed using a 2500V megohmmeter, revealed critically low values across all three phases — with Phase C measuring just 0.01 MΩ, confirming a severe leakage-type low-resistance fault. The low-voltage pulse method successfully measured the total cable length at 177 meters across all phases, indicating a consistent impedance profile along the route. To precisely locate the fault point, engineers switched to the high-voltage flashover method. As the voltage was gradually increased, the fault point broke down at 28 kV, generating a characteristic transient waveform. Analysis of the reflected waveform yielded a fault distance of 172 meters from the test terminal — just 5 meters short of the total cable length. "The fact that the low-voltage pulse method could clearly detect the fault distance indicated an extremely low fault resistance — well within the conductive range. This meant that during pinpointing, the discharge sound at the fault location would be very subtle, requiring exceptional care and expertise from our field team to identify the exact position." — XZH TEST Field Engineering Team Precision Pinpointing and Resolution With the fault pre-located at 172 meters, the field team deployed acoustic pinpointing equipment along the calculated cable route. Given the low-resistance nature of the fault, the discharge acoustic signature was minimal, demanding meticulous listening and multiple verification passes. After careful scanning, the fault point was confirmed with centimeter-level accuracy. Excavation and repair were completed within hours, restoring full power supply to the industrial zone. Operational Impact The rapid response and accurate fault location provided by XZH TEST minimized what could have been an extended production shutdown. By combining insulation resistance testing, low-voltage pulse reflectometry, and high-voltage flashover waveform analysis, the complete diagnostic chain was executed in under four hours — from initial testing to confirmed fault location.

Project Overview A recent overseas power maintenance project demonstrated how advanced underground cable fault detection technology can significantly reduce outage time and improve repair efficiency. When a critical underground power cable failure interrupted electricity supply in an industrial area, the local engineering team deployed professional diagnostic equipment to identify and resolve the fault with minimal disruption. The incident affected nearby industrial facilities and essential electrical infrastructure. By combining modern testing methods — including TDR cable testing, high-voltage fault location, and acoustic magnetic pinpointing technology — engineers successfully located the underground cable fault and completed repairs within a significantly reduced timeframe compared to traditional excavation approaches. Fault Background The affected cable was a medium-voltage underground power cable installed in an industrial distribution network, operating under demanding conditions and responsible for supplying electricity to important production facilities. During operation, the maintenance team observed abnormal electrical performance including unstable power supply and protection system activation. Initial investigation indicated possible cable insulation failure and a high-resistance fault, with further examination suggesting cable short circuit damage as the likely cause. Critical Decision Point: Traditional inspection methods would have required extensive excavation and longer troubleshooting periods. The engineering team instead selected professional underground cable testing methods to accurately diagnose the problem — a decision that proved instrumental in minimizing downtime. Cable Fault Detection Process The following five-step detection process was executed on-site by the engineering team using professional cable testing equipment: Step 1: Initial Cable Testing and Diagnosis Engineers first performed preliminary testing using professional cable testing equipment to evaluate cable condition, insulation performance, and possible fault characteristics. The initial assessment helped determine the fault type and prepared the system for further diagnosis. Step 2: Fault Pre-Location Using TDR Technology The team utilized a TDR (Time Domain Reflectometer) cable tester to perform fault pre-location. TDR technology analyzes reflected signals traveling through the cable and helps engineers estimate the distance between the test point and the fault location. This step reduced the search area and provided critical data for subsequent high-voltage testing. Step 3: High Voltage Surge Testing for Fault Location For faults that were difficult to identify, engineers applied a High Voltage Surge Generator to release controlled high-energy pulses into the cable system. The surge method helped convert high-resistance faults into detectable events. Combined with advanced monitoring methods, high-voltage cable testing allowed engineers to determine the approximate fault area with improved accuracy. Step 4: Acoustic Magnetic Pinpointing After narrowing down the fault area, engineers used Acoustic Magnetic Pinpointing Technology to locate the exact underground position. By detecting the sound and electromagnetic signals generated during discharge events, technicians identified the precise excavation point without unnecessary digging — greatly reducing excavation costs and minimizing disruption to surrounding infrastructure. Step 5: Cable Repair and Power Restoration Following accurate fault location, the damaged cable section was repaired and re-tested to confirm safe operation. Power supply was successfully restored, allowing industrial operations and local electrical services to return to normal.
