Megger SWG 500 – Cable Fault Locator

Megger SWG 500 – Cable Fault Locator

Key Features:

  • Switchable voltage ranges up to 16 kV with 500 J surge energy
  • Adjustable output for optimised arc performance and maximum sound
  • Integrated coupler supports ARM and ICE methods with Teleflex reflectometers
  • DC testing up to 300 mA for direct discharge and digiPHONE² pinpointing
  • Lightweight 47 kg portable design with switchable capacitors

 

The Megger SWG 500 forms a powerful yet easy-to-handle core for cable fault location. It ignites a controlled arc at the fault and generates clean travelling waves for precise prelocation via ARM or ICE. Operators simply select the lowest effective range, then maximise voltage. Every joule then reaches the fault, producing the loudest acoustic signature possible.

Whether tackling medium-voltage networks or tracing stubborn wet splices, its compact size and straightforward controls keep fieldwork efficient. Technicians spend less time hunting and more time restoring power. For reliable, cost-effective fault location that minimises excavation and downtime, the SWG 500 is the professional choice.
