Megger EZ-THUMP 12kV For Medium Voltage Cable Fault Locating
- Perfect for: Medium voltage cables
- Designed for: Testing (proof/insulation testing, sheath testing), fault prelocation and pinpoint fault location.
- This is the up-to-date model: Version 3
The EZ-THUMP is the ultimate first-response unit - compact, lightweight (just 32 kg), and designed for effortless portability. Powered by both battery and AC line, this intelligent cable fault location system is built for convenience and efficiency.
Perfect for medium voltage cable fault detection, the 12kV model excels in remote areas with infrequent faults or dense urban environments where access is challenging. When simplicity, portability, and cost-effectiveness matter, the EZ-THUMP delivers.
Featuring a field-replaceable battery, this advanced test set intuitively guides users through the entire fault-finding process, minimizing training requirements. With a lower capital investment, more service centers can keep it on hand - ensuring faster response times and getting you to the fault site quicker than ever.
Lightweight Design:
The lightweight design makes it extremely portable and is small enough that it doesn‘t require a dedicated vehicle to transport it.

Megger EZ-THUMP 12kV Key Features:
- ARM pre-location of high resistance/ flashover faults with NEW MULTISHOT Technology for optimum fault capture
- Rugged, lightweight, high impact resistant - Designed for wet outdoor applications (IP53 with top open)
- HiBrite colour display for outdoor visibility
- Automatic cable end, fault location, and sectionalising (optional in certain markets)
- Single-stage capacitor surge discharge: 500 J @ 12kV
- F-OHM safety feature to ensure safe grounding
- Fault pinpointing, high resistive fault
- Sheath testing and sheath fault locating
- TDR method to pre-locate very low resistance cable faults, either phase to phase or phase to neutral, or by pair comparison
- DC testing for breakdown detection
- Insulation resistance measurement
The unit usually needs no adjustments: It is easy to use with the E-TRAY GUI and a rotary control knob. The system guides the user through the fault locating process. It starts with a Hipot Test, then moves to Pre-location and Pinpointing steps. During these three steps, the test data is saved. This data helps in unusual fault locating situations. It interprets the results and gives advice on what to do next.
