During the detection, the probe brush of the spark detector is moved relative to the cable, and the probe brush applies a certain amount of pulsed high voltage on the cable insulation layer. If the insulation layer is damaged or defective, the high voltage current will form air gap breakdown in these areas, generate spark discharge, and trigger the alarm to sound an alarm;
