Objectives: To device a method to locate the hidden cable fault. Methodology: The system makes use of an Arduino circuit and a supply of rectified electricity. Creation of the fault is made via the collection of switches. The relays are operated by integrated circuit relay driver. A 16*2 LCD panel connected to the Arduino board to display the information. Findings: Using an Arduino module, the device is used to find the fault spot within kilometers in a hidden cable from the base station to the precise location. If the fault happens in an underground cable, it is difficult to locate the precise location of the defect for the purpose of fixing the specific cable. With respect to its form, we will be able to identify the fault and then the location would be traced after the project is implemented.
