DJ-1000

HV Cable On-line Monitoring and Fault Location System

About the DJ-1000

The use of cables on transmission systems is becoming increasingly common, which can make the location of faults on the system difficult to locate. The DJ-1000 uses travelling wave technology, coupled with an extremely high sampling rate, to provide an accurate fault location. The system is also capable of identifying and locating sheath faults and monitoring the load. It is applicable to HV AC cables, including underground, underwater and hybrid systems.

Key features

  • High performance capture of travelling wave signals for fault location.
  • Samples at 50MHz per channel, with a fault location resolution of less than 4m.
  • High precision GPS time synchronization with a 20ηs accuracy.
  • High fidelity reproduction of travelling wave signals.
  • Fundamental frequency current measurement, for load monitoring faulty section identification using the current differential principle.
  • Sheath fault detection using sensitive currents measurement.
  • Indoor and outdoor, non-intrusive installation.
  • AC mains powered, solar-powered and/or self-powered by the phase current.
  • Communications to the master station through the 4G/5G mobile network
