Signal Clamp/ Injector - C-SCOPE L2 Series Instruction Manual

Using the Generator/ Transmitter:
Signal Clamp
1. Plug the Signal Clamp into the connection socket on the Generator/ Transmitter.
2. Turn the Generator/ Transmitter on (and select either CF or 8kHz on the Transmitter).
3. Check that the jaws of the Signal Clamp are clean. Place the Signal Clamp AROUND the cable
making sure that the jaws are able to fully close. The audible signal from the Generator/ Transmitter
should drop in pitch indicating that the clamp jaws have closed correctly and the response on the
display (if fitted) should increase.
WARNING NEVER attempt to place the Signal Clamp around electricity cables
that are deliberately suspended out of reach. They may be unsheathed or unprotected cables.
NOTE The Signal Clamp cannot apply a signal to a cable that is not earthed at both ends such as abandoned
cables that have been cut off where they appear above ground or cables supplying unearthed equipment.
Signal Injector
1. Plug the Signal Injector into the connection socket on the Generator/ Transmitter and an electric outlet.
2. Turn the Generator/ Transmitter on (and select either CF or 8kHz on the Transmitter).
3. Turn the socket on. The audible tone from the Generator/ Transmitter will drop in pitch to indicate a
successful connection and the visual response on the display (if fitted) should go to full scale.
NOTE On two wire Protective Multiple Earth (PME) systems it may be necessary to also
provide an external earth using the yellow 10 metre Auxiliary Earth Lead and Earth Stake.
NOTE Always check with the owners that it is acceptable to interrupt the supply before connecting the Signal Injector.
NOTE Using the Signal Injector may cause the system protection to trip.
WARNING DO NOT use the Signal Injector on systems with voltages in excess of 240 volts AC.
Domestic systems will normally be below this voltage.
