Full Description

Scope

This Guide lists the various field test methods that are presently available or under development to perform field tests on insulated, shielded power cable systems rated 5 kV through 500 kV. A summary of advantages and disadvantages of the methods will be included. Users should avail themselves of th technical papers that are included as References and in the Bibliography before deciding whether to perform a test and which test to utilize. In making such decisions, consideration should be given to the performance of the entire cable system, including joints, terminations, and associated equipment.

Purpose

The purpose of this revision is to replace the present IEEE 400 with a Guide presenting an overview of the various tests presently available for evaluating the insulation of cable systems in the field. This will be the umbrella document for a series of Guides that cover each individual test method. These test methods that have been sufficiently developed to become approved Guides will become subdocuments. The content of the present IEEE 400 will be revised and will become the first subdocument.

Abstract

Revision Standard - Superseded.This Guide lists the various field test methods that are currently available or underdevelopment with guidance on HOW to perform each test. The Guide covers shielded, insulatedpower cable systems rated 5 kV through 500 kV unless these voltages are modified by the specific "point" document.
