Signal Current Measurement (MXL Locator only)

Signal Current Measurement can also help to identify the layout of pipe and cable networks

as the main line after a ‘T’ will have most of the Signal Current remaining on it whereas the

shorter connection will have correspondingly less.

The Signal Current reading should also reduce at a uniform rate as the distance from the

Generator/ Transmitter increases. A sudden drop in Signal Current, in a short distance,

indicates a change to that service such as an unknown connection, an insulated joint or

a break in the pipe or cable.
