High Voltage Maintenance Services - Fault Location & Emergency Response

Fault Location & Emergency Response

HVMS offers a solution to the perennial problem of fault location in power cables.

Our vehicles carry the latest technology in fault finding equipment to which we can apply four methods of location:

  • Pulse Reflection
  • Impulse Current
  • Pulse Echo
  • Murry/Wheatstone Resistance Bridge

The traditional answer was to cut and test the cable in a number of places to identify the faulty section. Where once the least expensive option was often to replace an entire length of cable, we can now pinpoint the exact position of the fault and effect a rapid repair.

HVMS offers Retainer Contracts to clients who require the peace of mind that comes from having rapid access to fully qualified, highly trained emergency response specialists. We can have engineers on site within 2-3 hours (subject to traffic) - often quicker.

The HVMS Emergency Response Call Centre on 0845 644 4867 is a 24/seven/365 operation and provides the only service of its type to Private Network clients.
