• The TDR1000/3 is a hand held, compact time domain reflectometer for locating faults on metallic cables. It has a minimum resolution of 0.1 m/0.3 ft and a 5 km/15 kft maximum range depending on velocity factor selected and cable type. 

• Four output impedances are available (25, 50, 75, and 100 Ω) and a velocity factor between 0.2 and 0.99 will meet any cable test requirements.

• The TDR1000 has a simple selection option which together with a 4 way control switch offers an intuitive operation for the user.

• The Megger TDR2000/3, TDR2010 and TDR2050 are state of the art, dual channel, high resolution, compact Time Domain Reflectometers with a colour screen for locating faults on paired metallic cables. 

• All TDRs in this series have a minimum resolution of 0.1 m / 0.3 ft and a 20 km / 65 kft maximum range depending on the velocity factor selected and the cable type.

• Various output impedances are available (25, 50, 75, 100, 125, 140 ohms, model dependent) and an auto impedance matching feature. The velocity factor can be set between 0.2 and 0.99 to meet any cable test requirements.

• It is fast and simple to operate, with features designed to avoid potentially dangerous power cables and other services as efficiently as possible. The Easyloc receiver shows the signal level received and marks the maximum with a marker.
  
  

• This means operators work with both an audio signal and visual confirmation at all times. Depth measurement is possible at the push of a button, even when using the power mode, but only with Easyloc Standard.

• Easyloc is suitable for water, rail, gas, power, highways and telecommunication utilities, as well as contractors, groundworks, building, local authorities, civil engineering, street lighting and fencing, gardening and landscaping companies.

A Cable Locator & Route Tracer is an essential test and measurement tool used to locate, trace, and identify underground or hidden cables, wires, and metallic pipes without excavation. It works by transmitting a signal through the target cable or pipe, which is then detected by a handheld receiver. These devices are widely used in power utilities, telecom, construction, maintenance, and facility management to prevent accidental damage, reduce downtime, and ensure safe excavation.

• Accurate Cable & Pipe Tracing – Detects live and de-energized cables.

• Depth Measurement – Estimates the depth of buried utilities.

• Signal Injection Modes – Direct connection, clamp method, or induction mode.

• Digital Display – Provides real-time cable location and depth information.

• Selectable Frequencies – Multiple tracing frequencies for different site conditions.

• Noise & Interference Reduction – Ensures reliable results in complex environments.

• Portable & Lightweight Design – Easy to use in the field.

• Audio & Visual Indication – Alerts for cable presence
