IEEE P400.1/D17-2018 Draft Guide for Field Testing of Laminated Dielectric@ Shielded AC Power Cable Systems Rated 5 kV to 500kV Using High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC)
IEEE - The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers@ Inc.
Scope
This guide presents the recommended practices and procedures for direct voltage acceptance and maintenance testing of shielded@ laminated dielectric insulated power cable systems rated 5 kV to 500 kV used in AC transmission systems. It applies to all types of laminated power cable systems such as paper-insulated lead metallic-sheathed@ high-pressure pipe-type@ low-pressure gas-filled@ and medium pressure self-contained liquid-filled cables that are intended for the transmission or distribution of electric power. The tabulated test levels assume that the cable systems have an effectively grounded neutral system or a grounded metallic shield. Purpose The purpose of this guide is to provide uniform practices and procedures for performing direct voltage acceptance and maintenance tests on shielded@ laminated power cable systems in the field and to provide guidelines for evaluation of the test results.
