The Motwane Manufacturing Company Private Limited

The COMPAC Series Cable Fault Locating System is a multi‑functional,high‑performance testing system designed for quick, accurate, and safe fault location in underground power cables. It is widely used by power utilities, industrial facilities, and service companies. The system integrates multiple testing and fault locating techniques, including High Voltage Surge Testing, DC Hi‑Pot Testing, Arc Reflection (ARC), Burn/Proof Test, and Pre‑location methods, enabling detection of short circuit, open circuit, high resistance, sheath, and intermittent faults. Mounted on a rugged trolley design, the COMPAC system offers easy mobility and field usability. With its advanced touchscreen interface, large memory storage, and multiple pre‑location methods, it ensures efficient and precise cable fault diagnosis in a single system.
