CableSniffer
Pinpoint underground LV cable faults with incredible accuracy in less than an hour, with no extensive excavation.
Locates faults by analysing gases from insulation breakdown
Average 50% cost savings on fault location and reinstatement
Used by every UK Distribution Network Operator
By analysing the gases emitted as cable insulation breaks down, CableSniffer pinpoints underground LV faults in under an hour, before any excavation takes place.

Find the fault before you dig
Finding underground cable faults with trial excavations wastes time and money. CableSniffer locates the fault before excavation takes place, so crews dig once, in the right place.
Each CableSniffer typically pays for itself in days, and keeps saving you money for every fault it locates.
Locate underground LV cable faults accurately, without extensive excavation
CableSniffer is a revolutionary tool that eliminates the need for extensive excavations when locating faults in cable insulation. By analysing the gases emitted during the breakdown of cable insulation, CableSniffer can pinpoint faults with incredible accuracy in less than an hour. This saves time, money and resources, making it the preferred method for locating underground low voltage cable issues in the UK.
The instrument detects the highest concentration of gas directly above the fault, allowing precise identification and efficient restoration of supplies to customers. This means fewer disruptions to road surfaces and significant savings in time and materials. CableSniffer can also work in tandem with VisNet Recloseยฒ and VisNet Hub, further enhancing fault-finding capabilities.
Average 50% cost savings on fault location and reinstatement, with even greater savings where there are time-based penalties for disrupting highways
Under one hour typical time to locate each fault, a fraction of the time taken with conventional methods
Much faster restoration of services, keeping customers and stakeholders happy
Far fewer holes and trenches, with much less disruption and environmental damage
No need to locate faults by breaking and re-jointing healthy cables, which can introduce new faults
Immediate return on investment plus repeated year-on-year savings; each CableSniffer typically pays for itself in days
Portable, easy to use with minimal training, and an ideal addition to engineers' fault location tool kit
