SG16
Download Product Specs

The SG16.900 is a lightweight, portable high-voltage surge generator designed for cable fault location and testing in distribution-level networks. Delivering up to 16 kV DC with 900 J surge energy, it supports DC withstand testing, TDR methods, ICM impulse current, MIM/ARC multiple impulse methods (with TDR.950A), and acoustic pinpointing (with GM Series receivers). Housed in a rugged 25 kg wheeled case, it combines compact mobility, reliable output, and built-in safety protections for effective field diagnostics.
