Cable insulation resistance test standard iec.
Table 100 22 minimum radii for power cable.
If insulation resistance of the cable is found between 1000 and 100 kω km at buried temperature the subject cable should be replaced urgently within a year.
The megger insulation tester is a small portable instrument that gives you a direct reading of insulation resistance in ohms or megohms.
Insulation resistance decreases in temperature or moisture.
The equipment under test is brought into contact with the hot filament for 30 seconds.
If the insulation resistance falls below an accepted user dictated value or falling rapidly over time then cable.
With a little record keeping and common sense however you can get a good picture of the insulation condition from values that are only relative.
Power cables with extruded insulation and their accessories for rated voltages from 1 kv um 1 2 kv up to 30 kv um 36 kv part 1.
If during periodical testing insulation resistance of cable is found between 5 and 1 mω km at buried temperature the subject cable should be programmed for replacement.
Ieee400 1 2007 ieee guide for field testing of laminated dielectric shielded power cable systems.
The resistance is determined by the glow wire test.
The temperature amounts to.
Whether it involves the connection cables the sectioning and protection equipment or the motors and generators the electrical conductors are insulated using materials with high electrical resistance in order to limit as much as possible the flow of current outside.
Insulation resistance testing guide.
Insulation resistance test data may be used to establish a trending pattern.
Maintenance insulation resistance testing can be performed on a regular basis and the collected data used to indicate if the conductor insulation is deteriorating over time.
Deviations from the baseline information permit evaluation of the insulation.
Test results are dependent on the temperature of the insulating material and the humidity of the surrounding environment at the time of the test.
