Abstract :
A method has been developed for characterising the wave propagation properties of medium voltage (MV) power cables. The technique is based on time and frequency domain analysis of short pulse propagation. Particular attention is paid to the measurement calibration, as samples with arbitrary characteristic impedances cause significant multiple reflections in the test set-up.
