Abstract :
Diagnostic testing of in-situ power cables is an emerging technology. Many diagnostic systems are being developed, both off-line and on-line that are providing much data. These data need interpretation and understanding as the technology emerges. This paper addresses some of the commercially available diagnostic methods and covers the field experiences with these diagnostics. Both PILC and polymeric insulated cables are included in the discussion.
