Axial Injection
AESA has developed a new and patent filed method of measuring the linear resistance of electrical conductors by axial current injection. The current is injected axially , rather than transversely. Each wire in the conductor is in direct contact with the current source, thus minimizing the contact resistance effect between wires. As a result, the accuracy and reliability of the measurement are significantly improved while paving the way to measure the linear resistance for Miliken cables and waterproofing cables.

Key Features
- Increased accuracy:
- Each wire is in contact with the power source
- Far less sensitive for aluminium oxidation between wires
- Kelvin method (4 points) according to the standard IEC 60468
- New measurement opportunities:
- Aluminium conductors, increase of accuracy.
- Very large cross sections
- Improves results on waterproofing cables such as Millike and Aquablock
- User friendly:
- Both axial and radial modes available on same unit
- The software takes care of current injection and measuring mode
- Generally, elder equipment can be upgraded.
Specs and datasheet
- The installation of the axial connectors requires the machining of the cable ends. The appropriated connectors and drilling tooling for copper and aluminium are included in the kit.
- 3 kits are available for different cables sizes:
