Sheath Tester MMG 5 is mainly designed for the withstand voltage testing of cable sheaths made of PE or PVC as well as for locating sheath faults on shielded plastic-insulated cables and the detection of earth-leakage faults in plastic-sheathed cables. In conjunction with Sheath Fault Prelocation Device MVG 5, sheath faults can be prelocated.
The following measurements can be taken:  | Sheath fault prelocation on shielded medium-high voltage cables.
| | Prelocation of line-to-earth faults on plastic-insulated low-voltage cables. |
Pin-Pointing is carried out by means of the Line-to-Earth Fault Locating Device ESG 80-2 using the method of measuring the step voltage. Due to the excellent burn down effect achieved by the full-wave rectification, this device is very well suited for converting high-resistance cable faults in low-voltage power cables into low-resistance ones.
Moreover our new Sheath Tester MMG 5 has further special features such as: | continuously adjustable output voltage in voltage ranges 500, 1000, 2000, 5000 V
| | protection against overload by voltage and current control
| | fault location at reduced power to prevent damages to adjacent wires or cables
| | indication of voltage and current by two analog indicating instruments
| | automatic discharge unit provides for removal of residual charge and for earthing the test object
| | clock-controlled operation of the voltage source to prevent the drying-out of faults when pinpointing sheath faults
| | excellent burn down effect through full-wave rectification |
