My son in Wellington has a fault in his mains power line that stops it being connected to the power. They know roughly where in the cable the problem is but an electrician dug a couple of holes but couldn't find it. 

 

Is there any way of locating it, say, with a signal put through the cable?

 

He was quoted $16,000 to put a new cable in!!

 

TIA.

Thanks everyone, but my son has just told me cable finders have located it but he awaits an electrician to see if it is repairable. Fingers crossed.
