How are measurements made on a basket type feeder?
A. If the feeder is connected in a basket configuration (i.e. two parallel cables connected together at both ends), the X35 should only be used if the cable runs are sufficiently separated. If both cables use common manholes, distortions in the magnetic field may occur preventing accurate readings from being obtained. In this situation, measurements using traditional equipment should be made. Back to Top Q. Why do the Thumper pulses go both positive and negative on the display A. There are some cases where Thumper pulses are displayed both positive and negative. This can be due to a number of reasons, such as; 1) the Gain is set incorrectly, 2) there is a large reflection on the cable, 3) you are too close to the Test Set source, 4) a powerful test set is used and the cable depth is shallow, or 5) you may be standing close to a “Tee” where multiple magnetic fields may be present. Try increasing the Gain until the “Too High” light illuminates (and then back off one), or try taking anoth
