2 Introduction
The GFL
– 1000 is designed to locate ground faults in DC bus systems used in a wide
variety of applications. The detector works by injecting an AC signal into the bus system
with respect to ground using the signal generator. The signal path is then traced using
current clamps connected to the signal receiver. The direction of current flow is
indicated on the receiver display, enabling the clamps to be moved to another branch or
section of wiring. The measurement is repeated, the clamps moved again until the faulty
part of the circuit is located. The GFL
– 1000 uses sophisticated patented hardware and
software measurement and filtering to reduce noise in order to assist and speed up fault
tracing, while reducing the possibility of error.
The GFL
– 1000 will also detect faults between the bus bars.
The GFL
– 1000 will operate at different voltages and frequencies to suit the bus
system, and includes self test and calibration system if these are required.
