The apparatus further comprises a sensor mechanism for determining that the plug has been properly inserted in the tube prior to expanding the plug for preventing improper expansion of the plug. The apparatus also comprises force measuring devices for determining and verifying that the proper amount of force has been applied to the expander member.
