CHAPTER 2

PRODUCT FEATURES

2.1 Description

The Fault Mapper Pro®is a hand-held graphical TDR (Time Domain

Reectometer) designed for identifying and locating faults on power and

communication cables, given access to one end only.

The Fault Mapper Pro®measures cable length and indicates the length

and distance to cable faults to a range of 9 ft (3m) to 19,000 ft (6000m)

on virtually any type of cable. It injects a series of pulses into the cable

under test. The velocity at which the pulses travel is determined by the

type of cable, which is known as the velocity of propagation (Vp) of the

cable. The Velocity of Propagation (Vp) is adjustable between 1% and

99% enabling accurate calibration to the cable under test.

The Vp value is expressed as a percentage of the speed of light (e.g.

67% or ft/mtrs/micro-second), this value will vary according to the type

of cable under test. The Fault Mapper Pro®can accept user selectable

values between 1 and 99% (or the equivalent value in feet or meters per

micro-second).

Based on the selected Vp and the time taken for the pulses to travel

through the cable, a reection prole of the cable under test is displayed.

An adjustable cursor assists in locating faults and termination.

The Fault Mapper Pro®incorporates an oscillating tone tracer, which

is detectable with a standard tone tracer, for use in the tracing and

identication of cable pairs.

2.2 Key Features:

• Vp Setting

• Hand-held graphical TDR (Time Domain Reectometer)

• Measures cable length and indicates distance to faults to a range of

19,000 ft (6000m)

• Graphical LCD

• Easy identication of short range faults

• Emits an audible tone, used to trace and identify the type of fault

Fault Mapper Pro®Model CA7027

3.1 Accuracy

The CA7027 is able to measure distances to faults and cable lengths to

an accuracy of ±1%.

This measurement accuracy is based on the correct value of Vp being

used for the cable under test, and homogeneity of the Vp along the cable

length.

If the Vp is set incorrectly by the operator, or the Vp varies along the

length of the cable, then additional errors will be incurred and the

measurement accuracy will be aected.

NOTE: The Vp is less well dened with unshielded multicore cable,

including power cable, and is lower when a cable is tightly wound on a

drum than when installed.

CHAPTER 4

OPERATION

4.1 Principles of Operation

The Fault Mapper Pro®works by measuring the time taken for a signal

to travel to the far end of the cable under test, or to an intermediate

fault and return. The velocity at which the signal travels Vp (Velocity of

Propagation) will depend on the characteristics of the cable.

Based on the selected Vp and the measured travel time of the test pulse,

the Fault Mapper Pro®calculates and displays impedance anomalies and

their distances along the cable.

4.2 Accuracy and Velocity of Propagation (Vp)

The Fault Mapper Pro®measures distances to faults and cable lengths

to an accuracy of ±1%. This measurement accuracy is based upon the

correct value of Vp being used for the cable under test, and homogeneity

of the Vp along the cable length.

If the Vp is set incorrectly by the operator, or the Vp varies along the

length of the cable, then additional errors will be incurred and the

measurement accuracy will be aected.

See § 4.8 for setting the Vp.

NOTE: The Vp is less well deﬁned with unshielded multi-conductor cable,

including power cable, and is lower when a cable is tightly wound on a

drum than when it is installed in a linear fashion.

Correct measurement of fault distances is also dependent on the cursor

being positioned accurately by the operator.

When locating faults with the

Fault Mapper Pro

the cursor should be positioned at the beginning of the

feature on the cable waveform as shown below.
