Pbwel WD6B/D3 | Detecting MV HV Voltages Safely In Substation & Overhead Lines up to 140kV

The PBwel WD6B/D3 live line tester is available in 3 models for use between Medium & High Voltage Power Voltages: 5-12kV, 10-36kV and 50-140kV.

The voltage detector circuitry is housed within the tubular body and is verified by pressing the test button. When the test button is released, the tone and LEDs will immediately revert to an intermittent signal, which operates until the unit makes contact with a live source or is switched off. The voltage detector should be tested before an operation. It is also possible to verify the detector using a separate proving unit, type MD, which can be ordered separately.

While the unit is switched on, an intermittent tone will start and the LEDs will flash in synchronisation. If the unit is functioning correctly the tone will become constant and the light steady. The sound LEDs’ on-off switch and test button are mounted on an oval plate facing the operator for ease of use.

The PBwel WD6B/D3 live line tester must be mounted on an operating pole which is available separately.

Various connection adaptors are also available; however, the basic unit is designed to be mounted on the top section of a UK standard operating pole. The pole head type should be mentioned when only the detector is being supplied.

The number of pole sections to be used with the voltage detector as a minimum will depend upon the voltage to be tested and the type of pole used.
