Q: What is the brand name of the TDR Cable Fault Locator?
A: The brand name is XZH TEST.
Q: What is the model number of the TDR Cable Fault Locator?
A: The model number is XHDD503C.
Q: What certifications does the TDR Cable Fault Locator have?
A: It is certified with CE/ISO.
Q: Where is the TDR Cable Fault Locator manufactured?
A: It is manufactured in China.
Q: What are the payment terms for purchasing the TDR Cable Fault Locator?
A: The payment terms are T/T (Telegraphic Transfer).
Q: What is Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) and how does it locate cable faults?
TDR sends a low-voltage electrical pulse into the cable and analyzes the reflected signal. When the pulse encounters an impedance change caused by a fault, splice, or the cable end, part of the energy reflects back. By measuring the round-trip time and knowing the signal propagation velocity in the cable, the XHDD503C calculates the exact distance to the fault point with high precision.
Q: What types of cables can the XHDD503C test?
The XHDD503C is suitable for power cables rated 35kV and below, as well as coaxial cables, communication cables, street light cables, and buried wires of various materials and cross-sections. It supports common insulation types including XLPE, oil-impregnated paper, and rubber/plastic dielectric cables.
Q: Can the 5-inch display be read clearly in outdoor conditions?
Yes. The 5-inch high-brightness touch LCD is specifically designed for outdoor field use, delivering clear waveform visibility even under direct sunlight. The compact form factor also makes the XHDD503C highly portable for one-person field operations and easy to carry between test locations.
Q: What faults can the XHDD503C detect and what are its limitations?
Using the low-voltage pulse method, the XHDD503C reliably detects open-circuit, short-circuit, and low-resistance faults (typically below several hundred ohms). It also measures cable length and calibrates wave velocity. For high-resistance and flashover faults, the TDR must be paired with an external high-voltage pulse generator for flashover testing.
Q: How do I determine the correct wave velocity for my cable?
The XHDD503C includes a built-in wave velocity calibration function. If you know the exact length of a healthy phase of the same cable, you can use it as a reference to calibrate the propagation velocity. Alternatively, select from preset velocity values for common insulation types: XLPE (~172 m/μs), oil-impregnated paper (~160 m/μs), and rubber/plastic (~140-180 m/μs).
Q: What is included in the package and what are the payment terms?
Each XHDD503C comes with the main TDR unit, test leads, charger, user manual, and a protective carrying case. Payment is processed via T/T (Telegraphic Transfer). Standard warranty covers 12 months from delivery, with lifetime technical support available. Contact our sales team for volume pricing and distributor inquiries.
