The FC 5300 is for live cable identification of up to 440V AC. This device provides safe identification of low voltage live insulated cable before a live connection operation or before de-energised operation (peak and cut). It also provides core (phase) identification on three-phase voltage system. Its specific modulator draws a coded current that can be only detected between the modulator connection point and the upstream power source (HV / LV transformer).
Detection is always available, even on high-loaded cables.
It can be used to find the right cable among other low or high voltage cables in a trench or a duct. The device can be used to find a cable or a specific phase or a multi-core cable. The FC 5000 has a voltage range of 180V - 440V and a frequency of 50Hz and 60Hz.
The modulator comes in an orange shock-proof all weather case containing modulator and carrying accessories. The modulator features 3 phase connections that can be configured for 1,2 or 3 phase cable identification as well as conductor phasing. Other features include - 1000V protection, weight 9.8kg.
