The AF-600 A-Frame cable ground fault finder is specifically designed for the Amprobe UAT-600 Underground Utilities Locator Series. In combination with the UAT-600 Transmitter, it will pinpoint the place where a cable metal conductor (either a sheath or a metallic conductor of the wire) touches the ground. It can also detect other conductors to ground faults such as pipeline coating defects.

 
• Optional accessory for Amprobe UAT-600 Underground Utilities Locator Series
• Works in conjunction with the UAT-600-T Transmitter
• Locate cable and wires ground faults, sheath faults or pipeline coating defects (direct contact of the utility with the ground is required to pinpoint a fault)
• Used to find the point where metal is touching the ground (shield is rusted/rubber buffer is broken) and power is leaking, creating noise on a cable
• Find the point of leakage around a cable (ground faults are common problems with electric cables) – saves money by pinpointing leakage point
• Adjustable volume control
• Advanced technology and digital signal processing makes pinpointing process fast, accurate and unambiguous:
1. Compass guidance with numeric fault field strength indicates direction to the place of the fault
2. Distance sensitive left/right guidance guides the user to precisely follow the path of the buried utility
3. Automatic gain control quickly detects tracing signal and precisely adjust A-Frame sensitivity
