Diagnosis of cables and malfunction detection in high-voltage overhead lines
Take delivery of new installations, assess the remaining life expectancy of connections and locate defects on cables in high-voltage overhead lines.
Test objectives
- Detect ageing or downgrading of cable insulation by measuring the insulation resistance
- Detect an electric current leakage that may indicate the presence of humidity or downgrading of cable insulation by measuring the tangent delta
- Locate a weak point on the cable by measuring the partial discharge
- Pre-locate a clear defect by measuring the pulse reflection
- Pre-locate an unclear defect by performing a surge arc reflection
- Determine the condition of the external sheath of a cable by conducting sheathing defect tests
