Using megger we can only find out cable is faulty or not .In the case of HV underground cables , for locating the fault we can use fault locating kit or prelocating kit . using fault locating kit we can pin pointing the fault location, Prelocating kit gives exact fault location im meters by calculation(above 50 mA leakage current is required for 132 KV cables)
