The TBS-1000 from Tanbos is a revolutionary vehicle-mounted cable fault location system engineered for high-voltage power networks. Integrating multiple fault detection technologies—including Time-Domain Reflectometry (TDR), Arc Reflection Method (ARM), Impulse Current Decay (ICE), and DC Testing—it provides an all-in-one, operator-safe testing environment. With its Auto Go™ Android-based control software and wireless tablet interface, the system automates the fault detection process, analyzing cable conditions, detecting waveform anomalies, and guiding users step-by-step through fault pre-location. Its fully insulated high-voltage section and built-in emergency safety measures ensure top-tier reliability in any utility or industrial setting.

Applications:

• Underground cable fault diagnostics for medium and high-voltage systems
• Fault location and verification in urban power networks and substations
• Electrical maintenance and pre-commissioning for distribution utilities
