Full Description

Scope

This guide provides information on the equipment, cable specimens, test conditions, and measurements to perform accelerated aging tests on medium-voltage cables using water-filled tanks, whether the test be a time-to-failure test or a test in which samples are aged for fixed times followed by a diagnostic test such as a step ACBD test. The guide identifies the critical test parameters and describes techniques for their measurement and control. The implementation of the techniques will facilitate a comparison of data obtained by different laboratories.

Purpose

The purpose of the original document was to provide broad background information on the critical test parameters for performing accelerated aging tests on medium-voltage cables using water-filled tanks. Revisions are necessary to distinguish between cable materials and cable design testing and to narrow the focus of available options for the critical test parameters.The purpose clause will not be included in the guide.

Abstract

Revision Standard - Active.This guide provides information on the equipment, cable specimens, test conditions, and measurements to perform accelerated aging tests on medium-voltage cables using water-filled tanks, whether the test be a time to failure test or a test in which samples are aged for fixed times followed by a diagnostic test such as a step ac breakdown test. The guide identifies the critical test parameters and describes techniques for their measurement and control. The implementation of the techniques will facilitate a comparison of data obtained by different laboratories.
