Condition Assessment Instruments

EA Technology offers a whole suite of condition assessment instruments from a handheld portable detector that locates underground cable faults or pen sized device designed to detect the presence of an electrical field to a PD Locator which locates partial discharge activity from within high voltage insulation material to the top of the range 100 Multi-node Multi Channel Substation Monitor

Cable Sniffer

Is a lightweight, handheld portable detector that locates underground cable faults by detecting specific gases produced by burning insulation from all common types of cables, an essential tool in fault location.

Polarity Tester

The pen sized device designed to detect the presence of an electrical field surrounding a live LV insulated wire. The instrument is calibrated to illuminate when within 3mm of a live core of a standard cable, allowing identification of live wires when bundled with others.

UltraTEV® Detector
 

The Worlds first lightweight hand held partial discharge detector that can detect both Surface Discharges and Internal TEV Discharges. Ultrasonic sensors pick up early signs of surface discharge and TEV sensors pick up internal discharge both indicated by two coloured lights.

UltraTEV Plus+TM
 

UltraTEV Plus+TM - The UltraTEV Plus+TM has been designed for today’s Power Engineers with a comprehensive suit of display screens and functions to give him all of the information he needs to understand the condition of his HV/MV assets.

UltraTEV® Calibration Checker
 

The easy-to-use accessory enables operators to confirm that their UltraTEV Detectors™ are correctly calibrated, without the cost and inconvenience of returning them to the company each year to be tested. Units only need to be returned if they are outside their specified calibration. The Calibration checker only requires an annual calibration to ensure it is functioning correctly.

MiniTEV
 

Hand held instrument designed for engineers to detect partial discharge activity on HV switchgear, by displaying the magnitude and pulse count outputs on a LCD screen display. Also it produces a value for the discharge pulse rate that allows a severity factor to be calculated.

Extended Volt Stick
 
Designed to address the problem of verifying damaged underground cables during highway maintenance repairs, ensuring the correct cable has been isolated. With the aid of a hot stick the extended volt stick can be brought into the proximity of the conductors, yet keep personnel at a safe distance.

Fritter  

Developed by EA Technology, utilises the principle of ß frit welding to reduce the resistance of a low voltage mechanical cable joint to that of a newly made one. Rejuvenates old cable joints, rectifies intermittent cable faults and can extend cable life when used within a maintenance plan.

PD Logo Monitor  

PD Monitor the most successful monitor of partial discharge currently available in the world today. Completely non-intrusive, it is designed to monitor discharges over a period of time and indicate variations caused by changes in the operating environment, such as voltage surges, temperature and humidity. The data gathered is stored onto disc, which can then be analysed to indicate levels of discharge and severity over a period of up to two months.

PD Logo Locator  

PD locator partial discharge activity from within high voltage insulation material. These small discharges generate transient earth voltage signals (TEV) that can be detected and measured by the PD Locator . The magnitude of the TEV signal is measured using the instrument in single probe mode. Using the instrument in two-probe mode indicates the source of the discharge in relation to the probes.

UltraTEV Alarm™  

The UltraTEV AlarmTM is a unique and cost effective early warning system, which enhances the operator safety and confidence in the continuing reliability and safety of plant by providing continuous monitoring of MV switchgear for signs of deterioration which are likely to lead to failures and danger to personnel.

PD Logo Monitor Plus +  

Multi-node Multi Channel Substation Monitor. Designed for both permanent and semi-permanent installation, the PD Monitor Plus + can monitor many substation parameters, but specifically partial discharge activity using up to 100 nodes, which can be distributed anywhere on the surface of switchgear equipment. Each node can have a transient earth voltage (TEV) probe, or an aerial, or up to six ultrasonic probes attached. The nodes constantly measure both TEV and acoustic activity (Ultrasonic) to provide a highly accurate picture of the condition of the switchgear insulation and any sign of breakdown that could lead to expensive failure.

Remote Voltage Trend Recorder  

The low cost portable device designed to monitor and record supply fluctuation trends. Installation is fast and simple and there are no user accessible controls making it virtually tamperproof.
