Data record `instr.time-domain-reflectometer.mixed-routes`

Verified 2026-10-27 Confidence: High

On a mixed cable route the velocity of propagation differs between sections, so the fault position cannot be computed exactly from one end; measuring from both ends gives two positions and the fault generally lies about midway between them, after which careful pinpointing is recommended.

Provenance. Where this record comes from and where it is used: the cited source, the record itself and the entry that cites it.
