One of the major thermal power plants from Northern India was living with the problem of an undetected cable fault for over two years on their LT Cable. Since this cable was used for Street lighting and had a backup line which used to power up the street lights, this faulty cable went into the …

Prelocation of Cable Faults Using Voltage Decay Method

Introduction In the previous blog, we discussed the ICM method used for prelocation of the Insulation Failure / High Resistance faults. To find out the distance of insulation failure / Very High Resistance faults in HV to EHV power cables, in which the breakdown voltage is greater than the Surge Generator's voltage the Voltage Decay …
