Diagnostic tests on cables.

Power cable insulation may begin to develop weak spots after many years in service, which will lead to unexpected breakdowns if left unattended.

Special test techniques, utilizing a 0.1 Hz power source, are available to identify these weak spots. Once identified, it is then crucial to determine if a suspected weak spot needs to be repaired immediately or if the repair can wait until regularly scheduled maintenance is performed. Drawing from a large database of test information and years of experience of interpreting test results, KEMA has developed a set of specialized knowledge rules and can recommend the most cost effective course of action for any situation.
