The arc discharge generator GI-TA is designed to search for high-resistance breakdown points of a high-voltage cable and to determine the distance to these points in combination with TDRs RI-407 or TDR-107, TDR-109 reflectors in three possible ways:
Time Domain Reflectometry - TDR;
Arc-reflection method – ARM, in two modes – manual and auto;
Wave method (oscillatory discharge, ICE).
Attention! Applying the GI-TA doesn’t assume the burning mode. It can occasionally appear with low-resistance conditions (in AUTO mode). The device maintenance during more than 15 sec in that conditions will cause the GI-TA failure. (Please note, that’s not a guarantee point.)
