Abstract :
Laboratory tests were developed for evaluating portable cable splices prior to their use in underground coal mines. The tests simulate mechanical and electrical destructive effects on cables supplying power to shuttle cars. Tests for splice tension, conductivity, flexibility, dielectric withstand, abrasion, and workmanship qualities are explained.
