Separate Good Pair
Note: Results are more accurate but less forgiving than a 2-wire setup because
the 4-wire setup requires you to connect the faulted wire conductor to the
Ring (red) jack only.
Current Test displays the test being measured. When FED is Enabled,
the FED icon and numeric state are displayed beside the Current Test.
Cable Setup button opens a new page that allows you to set the cable
parameters for the Current Test. Press
to open the page.
Result displays the separate good pair RFL test results. Based on the
cable condition, corresponding values are added into the diagram at
their specific positions. Test result units are dependent on Standard in
Setup/Application Settings.
Distance to strap (DTS).
Resistance to strap (RTS).
Distance from fault to strap (DFTS).
Resistance from fault to strap (RFTS).
Resistance to fault (RTF).
Distance to fault (DTF).
Faulted cable (FC).
Resistance at fault (Rf) is resistance from the fault to the resistance
wire.
Voltage at fault (Vf).
If the test reports that it cannot detect the strap when the measured
loop resistance is >10 k Ohm, this may mean:
There is no strap connected.
There is a strap, but the cable is too long and has a loop resistance
>10 k Ohm.
