The time difference between the arrival of the magnetic pulse and the flashover
noise
−
i.e. the distance to the fault
−
can be shown either directly (in
milliseconds) or converted into a unit of length (metres or feet).
To convert time to distance a constant (mean) propagation speed is
taken as the basis. However, because the actual ground conditions and
hence the sound propagation speed vary greatly, the distances
calculated can also differ from the real values to various degrees. The
distances displayed can therefore only be considered as guides!
