Locate underground low voltage cables with ease with EA's CableSniffer!
Uniquely designed, this instrument accurately detects cable faults with minimal effort. No more tiresome excavation work; with the CableSniffer, you can sample and analyse gases emitted by low voltage cables when voltage starts to break down using small, 8mm bore holes. As the highest concentration of gas is usually directly above the fault, excavation work is precise and time isn't wasted digging up unnecessary ground.
