The Megger SWG 1750 is a portable surge wave generator designed for cable fault location in low and medium-voltage cables, delivering up to 32 kV (0-8/16/32 kV) and 1750 J of surge energy. It supports multiple fault detection methods, including active/semi-active arc reflection method (ARM), impulse current equipment (ICE), decay method, and sheath fault location, with switchable capacitors for optimized energy delivery.

The system enables precise fault pinpointing through direct discharge, producing an audible arc detectable by accessories like the digPHONE 2, which measures fault distance using time differences between electromagnetic and acoustic signals.

Its rugged, field-ready design includes a set of cables and an HV connection cable, with multiple surge stages to minimize energy use and reduce surface damage during fault location. No warranty is specified, making it ideal for efficient and accurate cable fault diagnostics in field applications.
