Description

Hipotronics X-Wave Cable Fault Locator Repair

The X-Wave is a complete cable fault location system — it combines surge generation (thumping) with prelocation methods so a crew can narrow down and then pinpoint a fault on power cable. As high-energy HV equipment paired with sensitive prelocation electronics, repairs span the surge side and the measurement side both.

June Company repairs and calibrates the X-Wave for utility fault crews and underground cable contractors.

Common X-Wave problems we fix

  • No thump / surge won’t fire — HV supply, surge-capacitor, or discharge-switch failure, the defining thumper fault, rebuilt so it discharges at full energy.
  • Surge too weak to break down the fault — capacitor or switch degradation reducing delivered energy, restored.
  • Prelocation not working — the TDR/ARM prelocation circuitry that narrows the search before thumping.
  • Internal HV arcing or leakage — insulation breakdown from cumulative stress.
  • Control or interlock faults — the sequencing and safety circuits.

FAQs

My X-Wave won’t thump — repairable? Yes. That points to the HV supply, capacitor, or discharge switch, all serviceable, then verified so it delivers full surge energy safely.

Do you check the full locate workflow? Yes — surge and prelocation functions are verified together so the system works end to end.

Every repair includes NIST-traceable calibration and a 90-day parts-and-labor warranty. Email us or submit a service request.

Hipotronics Repair

Hipotronics is a company known for manufacturing electrical test equipment, primarily focusing on high voltage testing and measurement devices. Some of their key products include:
  1. Hipot Testers (Dielectric Strength Testers): These instruments test the electrical insulation of components and systems by applying high voltage to check for breakdown or leakage.
  2. Insulation Testers: Used to measure the resistance of electrical insulation, ensuring that it is sufficient to protect against electrical leakage.
  3. Cable Fault Locators: Devices used to identify faults or breaks in underground cables without the need for excavation.
  4. Transformer Testers: Equipment designed to test the condition and performance of transformers, ensuring they meet operational standards.
  5. Partial Discharge Testers: Used to detect partial discharges within insulation materials, which can indicate potential weaknesses or faults.
  6. High Voltage Power Supplies: These provide the necessary high voltage for various testing applications, ensuring reliable and accurate measurements.
Hipotronics products are essential in industries such as power generation, transmission and distribution, manufacturing, and electrical maintenance, where ensuring the integrity and safety of electrical systems is critical.
