Description
Baur Frida TD VLF Tester Repair
The Baur Frida TD is a compact VLF cable test set with integrated tan-delta (TD) diagnostics — a portable unit that both withstand-tests medium-voltage cable at 0.1 Hz and measures dielectric loss to assess insulation condition. Combining an HV source with a precision tan-delta measurement, its faults span both sides.
June Company repairs and calibrates the Baur Frida TD for cable-diagnostics crews needing a portable set.
Common Frida TD problems we fix
- Tan-delta readings off — drift in the loss-measurement circuit, the diagnostic heart of the set, recalibrated against standards.
- Won’t reach test voltage or collapses — HV source failure, often post-flashover, repaired.
- Waveform distortion — regulation faults on the 0.1 Hz output, corrected.
- Won’t hold a charge — battery degradation, replaced.
- Display or control faults.
FAQs
My Frida tan-delta drifted — fixable? Yes. We recalibrate the loss measurement and verify the HV output so both withstand and diagnostic results are accurate again, with a NIST-traceable certificate.
Is the battery serviced too? Yes — battery and charging service is routine.
Every repair includes NIST-traceable calibration and a 90-day parts-and-labor warranty. Email us or submit a service request.
