While both tools are used for underground cables, their functions are distinct:

• Cable Locator: The primary purpose of a cable locator is to find the path and position of an intact cable before digging. Its goal is to prevent damage.

• Cable Fault Locator: This is a more specialized device used to find the exact location of a fault or break in an already-known underground cable. It works by sending a signal down the line and measuring the reflection from the fault point. This is a crucial tool for our customers who need to perform quick and efficient repairs, minimizing power outage duration.

As a provider of comprehensive one-stop supply for underground cable laying, we recognize that our customers require tools for both installation and maintenance. While our core product line supports the laying of new cables, we understand the critical role of locators in the full project lifecycle, from initial safety checks to post-installation maintenance.
