Fault location

(OP)
I'm looking for am intermittent cable fault locator. My company had many years of good service from the Bicotest Vixxon series but these are no longer available or supported since radiodetection took them over.
I have found the Riser Bond 1200 series but does any have any experience of these or know of any other instruments on the market? I've googled till I'm googled out.
We are an electricity distributer and the cables are LV up 300mm
Thanks for any suggestions
