Option 100 Fault Location and SRL 7-11
Characterizing and Verifying Antenna Systems
Installation and Maintenance Planning
As described, the tests are typically divided into three categories:
1. Incoming inspection, which includes those tests done on the cable
components before assembly to verify specified performance.
2. Installation measurements, which allow you to verify system integrity
as well as record baseline data.
3. Maintenance.
The limits and pass/fail margins are useful for monitoring potential
problems. A “fail” condition during maintenance may require immediate
repair. By monitoring the “margin” of a pass condition, replacement
before failure can be planned.
