MEGGER SWG 500 16kV, 500 J Syrge Wave Generator

Overview

• Surge generator for 4 kV, 8 kV and 16 kV and output up to 500 J
• Optimized surge energy for switchable capacitors

The Surge Wave Generator SWG 500 operates in the middle voltage range of the usual SWGs. While its surge energy is in the lower range, the three voltage ranges are switchable, which allows each voltage stage to use the full surge energy of 500 Joules.

Together with reflectometers, surge generators are the central component of cable fault location. They are used for both pre-location and also pinpoint location.
