UNITAG VOLTAGE DETECTOR FOR LV NETWORK

The UNITAG LV voltage detector is a unipolar detector designed to test the presence of phase on insulated or bare LV conductors. The level of detection is indicated by an LED bar graph and a beeping sound whose speed increases as the device approaches a live source.

It is commonly used for detecting stray voltage on poles and cross arms, and conductor disconnection on overhead insulated LV conductors. UNITAG will not replace a standard “proving dead” device but is an ideal complement to a bipolar LV detector.

Use

This unipolar detector is designed to address two types of needs :

• Checking electrical works which may be damaged, have a spurious level of safety or undetermined power source:
• The safe approach to damaged cables or cabinets (storm, flood, digging, accident)
• Safe approach to the metalwork (cabinet, lighting pole, frame or under footpath connecting box)
• The safe approach of metal cable shielding when preparing a cable joint
• Checking earth circuit
• Checking the presence of voltage at cable ends (MV or LV)
• The safe approach to flooded electrical installation(under investigation, looking for feedback)

Checking LV insulated network (non-shielded) :

• Checking voltage presence on LV overhead insulated or covered cables
• Looking for discontinuity on LV overhead insulated or covered cables
• Proving the switch position upon an LV overhead insulated or covered cable
• Identifying out Phase and Neutral cable
