BT-5000 Cable Fault Converter

The BT-5000 Cable Fault Converter (Burn-down instrument), SEBA-KMT Germany is mainly used for converting high-resistive cable faults in cables into low-resistive ones. The cable burn unit BT-5000 Cable Fault Converter is a small portable unit for the burning of high resistive faults on low voltage cables as pilot, control and communication cables.

With the adjustable output voltages of 0.5, 1 and 2 kV and exceeding of the maximum permitted voltages for these types of cables is almost impossible.

The BT-5000 is also a powerful sheath tester and has a pulsed output voltage for the pinpointing of sheath faults.

The voltage supply with an adjustable output voltage of 0 to 2 kV and an maximum test current of up to 1 A has a symmetrical output voltage, which means that a potential free connection to a cable pair is possible.

  • Burning of high resistive faults
  • Low- potential free voltage avoids damage to other conductors
  • Adjustable current limiter
  • Overload protection
  • Automatic discharge
