Conductive Rod Functional Check
The purpose of the following procedure is to verify the performance of the Conductive Rod.
To carry out this test the following are required:
• A Transmitter for generating the signal in the Sonde and Line mode tests
• The cable set for the Conductive Rod.
Plug the Transmitter's cable set into the connection socket. Connect the red cable to the
positive (+) terminal on the conductive rod, connect the black cable to the negative (-)
terminal.
Switch the Transmitter on and adjust the power output on the Transmitter to minimum, the
audible output must be constant. Disconnect the black cable from the negative (-) terminal,
the audible output must be pulsed.
If any of these tests give no response or a significantly different response from
normal, the Conductive Rod should be returned for service.
