Cable fault location system. The compact cable fault location system, Syscompact 2000, is used for the pre-location and pin-pointing of faults on low- and medium-voltage cables. The system can be equipped with different surge voltage generators SSG 1100, SSG 1500* or SSG 2100*. The surge voltage generators have an automatic surge mode, thereby also allowing the Syscompact 2000 to be used for acoustic pin-pointing.
