I work as Engineer in a coal mine. Is it possible to make a cable fault detector? If yes how? Material required and construction n operation.

Underground Cable Fault Distance Locator
Before attempting to find underground cable failures on the direct primary blind cable, it is essential to know where the cable is located and which direction it is taking. If the fault occurs on the secondary cable, then knowing the exact route is even more critical. Since it is extremely difficult to find a cable fault without knowing where the cable is, it makes sense to master the location and tracking of the cable before starting the troubleshooting process.
The success of fault tracking and the location of an underground cable depends primarily on the skill, knowledge and experience of that person. Although cable tracing may be an intricate job, it is likely to become even more complex as more underground facilities are installed. It is so important to understand how the equipment works.
