VCI-3™
Voice Cable Identification System
The VCI-3™ is a cable identification and phasing system used during installation or maintenance works on de-energized three phase systems.
Operation Mode
The tone transmitter integrates a speaker and a mi-crophone to record the vocal identification message. The transmitter uses direct connection injection clips or three clamps for magnetic current injection. The clamps induces current in the conductor and no concerns with the cable sheath. Thanks to its rechar-geable battery pack, it can provide more than eight hours of continuous work.
The compact detector uses a magnetic sensor. It has a built-in speaker with adjustable volume and a earphones jack to listen to the vocal identification message even in noisy environments. The sensor detection threshold is adjustable according to cable type and length. Detection is guaranteed by a digi-tal processing system that checks for the presence or absence of every tone that comes in from the transmitter end. ndb Technologies’ unique process guarantees a safe, precise and flawless detection.

LCI™
Live Cable Identification System
The LCI™ is intended for energised cable identification on secondary and primary circuits. It features a dual frequency technique that eliminates false identifications. The LCI™ is designed to be easy to use, safe for the user and cost-effective.
Low Voltage Cable Identification
The LCI-L™ load module is connected to the secon-dary side of the distribution transformer (120 VAC to 420 VAC).
The LCI-D™ detector module is used on insulated distribution low voltage cables (120 VAC to 420 VAC) on the secondary side of the transformer. It detects the signal coming from the LCI-L™ thus identifying the cable confirming its tags.
Advantages
-
Dual frequency efficient technique
-
Easy to install and operate
-
The safest technique on the market
-
Transmission on live cables
-
Detection by digital processing
-
High-resolution detection frequencies
-
Single or three phase applications
High Voltage Cable Identification
The LCI-L™ load module is connected to the secon-dary side of the distribution transformer (120 VAC to 420 VAC).
For high voltage cable identification, the LCI-D™ detector module must be paired with the LCI-HV ™ high voltage probe. The LCI-HV™ probe is designed to identify online cables up to 25kV thus enabling cable identification on the primary side of the trans-former.
The LCI™ system can be used on single phase circuits as well as three phase circuits.
