6.7.4  The determination of distance to a parallel tap 

 

The  irregularity  connected  with  the  cable  taps  is  also  extended.  By  the  waveform 

view  the  tap  reminds  of  cable  clogging.  The  difference  is  that  the  tap  looks  like  uniform 

section.  To  determine  the  distance  to  tap  point  it  is  necessary  to  set  the  cursor  to  the 

beginning of irregularity. If the tap length is longer that the rest part of the cable, the pulse 

reflected from the end of cable might completely disappear. The reflected pulse that by its 

shape  indicates the  availability  of a  parallel tap  in  the  cable  line  is  to be observed  in  the 

cursor position 2.
