Amprobe AF-600 A-Frame Cable Ground Fault Locator
The Amprobe AF-600 A-Frame Cable Ground Fault Locator is designed to be used with the UAT-600 Series Underground Utilities Locator Kits. Set up the UAT-600-T Transmitter to apply a fault find signal to the utility under test, the Amprobe AF-600 A-Frame receives the signal and locates the place of the fault. The Amprobe AF-600 will pinpoint where a cable metal conductor (either a sheath or a metallic conductor of the wire) touches the ground and can also detect other conductors to ground faults such as pipeline coating defects.

- Optional accessory for Amprobe UAT-600 Underground Utilities Locator Series
- Works in conjunction with the UAT-600-T Transmitter
- Locate cable and wires ground faults, sheath faults or pipeline coating defects (direct contact of the utility with the ground is required to pinpoint a fault)
- Used to find the point where metal is touching the ground (shield is rusted/rubber buffer is broken) and power is leaking, creating noise on a cable
- Find the point of leakage around a cable (ground faults are common problems with electric cables) – saves money by pinpointing leakage point
- Adjustable volume control
