IEEE Guide for Field Testing and Evaluation of the Insulation of Shielded Power Cable Systems Rated 5 KV and Above


Book Description

Abstract: Various field test methods that are currently available or under development are listed in this guide. The guide covers shielded, insulated power cable systems rated 5 kV and above. The guide describes the tests and gives advantages and disadvantages, suggested applications, and typical results. Complete guides covering some of the test methods listed are available in the form of IEEE 400 "point" documents. Keywords: field testing, IEEE 400, power cable system.
















IEEE Std 404-2012 (Revision of IEEE Std 404-2006) - Redline


Book Description

Electrical ratings and test requirements of cable joints used with extruded and laminated dielectric shielded cable rated in preferred voltage steps from 2.5 kV to 500 kV are established in this standard. In addition, test requirements for joint metallic-shield and jacketing components are defined. A variety of common joint constructions are also defined. This standard has been designed to provide uniform testing procedures that can be used by manufacturers and users to evaluate the ability of underground power cable joints, and associated metallic-shields and jacketing components, to perform reliably in service.
