FLUKE SmartTrace™ AF2082 A-FRAME ACCESSORY FOR UNDERGROUND UTILITIES LOCATOR
COMTEST now has Fluke’s new AF2082 A-Frame – a specialised accessory designed to help technicians quickly locate faults in underground cables. When used with compatible Fluke underground utility locator systems, the AF2082 enables precise fault detection by measuring voltage gradients in the ground, helping crews pinpoint damaged cables faster and more accurately.
Underground cable faults can lead to costly downtime, service disruptions, and extensive excavation if the fault location is uncertain. The AF2082 simplifies this process by guiding operators directly to the fault point. By inserting the A-Frame probes into the ground and following the measured signal gradient, technicians can determine the exact location of insulation breakdowns or cable damage—reducing guesswork and minimising unnecessary digging.
The AF2082 is designed for use in demanding field conditions where durability and reliability are essential. Its rugged construction and ergonomic design make it well-suited for utility technicians, contractors, and maintenance teams working in environments such as power distribution networks, telecommunications infrastructure, industrial facilities, and municipal utilities.
When paired with Fluke underground utility locating systems, the AF2082 becomes part of a comprehensive workflow for locating, tracing, and diagnosing buried utilities. After a cable or pipe has been traced using a transmitter and receiver, the A-Frame can be used to accurately identify the exact point of a ground fault. This helps speed up repair operations, improve troubleshooting efficiency, and reduce disruption to surrounding infrastructure.
The Fluke AF2082 A-Frame helps technicians work faster and more confidently by providing a reliable method for pinpointing underground cable faults. By enabling precise fault location and reducing excavation time, it helps crews restore service quickly while minimising costs and site disruption.
