Megger SWG 500 16 kV 500 J surge wave generator

The Surge Wave Generator SWG 500 operates in the middle voltage range of the usual SWGs. While its surge energy is in the lower range, the three voltage ranges are switchable, which allows each voltage stage to use the full surge energy of 500 Joules.

Together with reflectometers, surge generators are the central component of cable fault location. They are used for both pre-location and also pinpoint location.
