Megger FC3 Fault Converter

Overview

The Megger FC3 Fault Converter is an add-on for reflectometers (TDRs) that makes humidity and wet faults visible, especially in communication cables. It applies a DC offset with switchable polarity to the reflectometer’s measuring signal; at a wet or humid point this triggers a galvanic reaction that appears as an amplitude change in the pulse, converting hard-to-see faults into a clear, interpretable trace.

Key features of the Megger FC3 Fault Converter

• Reveals humidity and wet faults on a reflectometer trace
• Applies a DC offset with changing polarity to trigger a galvanic reaction at wet points
• Converts complex fault signals into more manageable, interpretable forms
• Especially effective on communication cables
• Best used with a dual-input TDR (e.g. TDR2000/3) in differential or IFL mode
• Portable, battery-powered with over 10 hours operation

FC3 fault conversion applications

The FC3 is used alongside a reflectometer to locate moisture-related faults on telecom and signal cables that are difficult to see with standard TDR pulses. By making the wet section stand out as an amplitude change, it helps technicians pinpoint insulation and humidity faults precisely.
