Abstract: In order to locate a cable fault in a cable, a testing apparatus applies a test signal to the cable so as to induce an electrical oscillation. The testing apparatus includes a voltage source that generates the test signal, which e.g. ignites an electrical arc at the cable fault or applies a voltage surge to the cable, to cause the electrical oscillation. The apparatus further includes a measured signal evaluation device to measure the resulting oscillations in the time domain or the frequency domain, and carry out a spectral analysis in the frequency domain, so as to automatically determine the location of the fault preferably from the total phase rotation of the signal, the phase rotation of the reflection at the first cable end, the phase rotation of the reflection at the cable fault, and the imaginary part of the propagation constant of the signal in the cable.

Abstract: The invention relates to a modular carrier for receiving, storing and transporting thin planar workpieces/semi-finished products, such as wafers for photovoltaic elements, in vertical positions that are parallel to each other and uniformly spaced. This problem is solved by a modular design of the carrier. The required components are combined into three modules. The first module is the groove plate having the horizontal support arranged beneath in an angled shape. The second module is formed by the two U-shaped end plates. The third module comprises the spacer rods, which are arranged between said two U-shaped end plates and of which two in each case receive a groove plate at the top and the bottom. The groove plates and the spacer rods are used at the length L, wherein the length L is uniformly graduated. In this way, the carrier can be produced in the length L or n×L, with n always being an integer.
