WHAT WE DO

Cable Fault Location & Diagnostics

IXR provides specialized cable fault location and diagnostic testing for medium voltage power systems, helping clients identify failures quickly, plan repairs, and return critical equipment to service with confidence.

Fault Identification

Find the Fault. Understand the Problem.

A cable failure can take critical equipment or an entire system offline. Finding the source quickly requires more than determining that a fault exists. The location and nature of the failure need to be understood before excavation, repair, or replacement work begins.

IXR provides power cable testing and fault location to help isolate problems and pinpoint faults with greater accuracy. Our approach helps clients reduce unnecessary excavation, shorten troubleshooting time, and make informed decisions about the next steps.

Testing Capabilities

Cable Testing & Fault Location

Cable diagnostics can be used to investigate an active failure, troubleshoot recurring issues, or assess cable condition as part of a broader electrical maintenance program.

The testing approach is determined by the cable system, operating conditions, and the nature of the suspected fault.

  • Medium-voltage cable fault location
  • Power cable testing and diagnostics
  • Fault identification and pinpointing
  • Cable integrity and condition testing
  • Troubleshooting of failed or unreliable cable systems
  • Testing support before returning repaired cables to service
Technical Expertise

Experienced Field Diagnostics

Electrical faults do not always present themselves in predictable ways. Effective cable fault diagnostics require experienced personnel who can interpret test results, understand the system around the failure, and adapt the investigation as new information becomes available.

IXR combines specialized test equipment with practical field knowledge to help determine where the problem is and what the results mean for the client.

Field Support

From Fault Location to Return to Service

Once a cable fault has been located, IXR can work alongside owners, maintenance teams, contractors, and engineering personnel through the next stages of the work.

Following repair, additional electrical cable testing can help verify cable integrity before the system is re-energized. The objective is straightforward: identify the problem efficiently, support the repair process, and provide confidence before equipment is returned to service.
