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 with greater accuracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnderground 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 minimizing unnecessary digging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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 minimizing costs and site disruption.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQuickly pinpoint underground cable faults\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWorks with Fluke underground utility locator systems\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRugged design for demanding field environments\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEasy-to-use A-Frame for accurate fault locating\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpeeds troubleshooting and reduces excavation time\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"head\"\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTracing mode (de-energized)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8 kHz (8,192 Hz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLocating mode\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGround fault locating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSensitivity (typical)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCable locate mode at 1 meter depth: 10 uA\u003cbr\u003eFault locate mode: up to 2 MΩ fault\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDisplay backlight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAutomatic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAudio indication\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpeaker indicates left\/right by pulsed\/continuous\u003cbr\u003etone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompatible transmitter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2082T Transmitter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDisplay\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.28 in (33 mm) 128 x 128 BW outdoor LCD\u003cbr\u003edisplay with auto backlight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUpdate rate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInstantaneous\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower supply\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSix (6) 1.5 V AA IEC LR6\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAuto power off\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15 minutes idle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBattery life (Typical)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUp to 60 hours at 21 °C (70 °F)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLow battery indication\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlinking\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Fluke","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46508688801948,"sku":"FLUAF2082","price":4945.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0561\/6169\/7948\/files\/af2082.png?v=1773346868","url":"https:\/\/mektronics.com.au\/products\/fluke-smarttrace-a-frame-accessory-for-underground-utilities-locator","provider":"Mektronics Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
