Partial Discharge IEEE Standard
Partial Discharge IEEE Standard
(OP)
Does any one know what is the IEEE standard for partial discharge testing on power cables?
And is there any other way to look up IEEE standards without subscribing to the IEEE website?
Thanks

There have been some excellent discussions on cable testing at Eng-Tips. See
Thread238-87479
Thread238-102550
Thread238-65556
IEEE standards are their own beast, and could use a lesson from www.iec.ch for high-quality, up-to-date descriptive details. Limited information is available at

I encourage you to read the document and make your own decisions but I think you will find that VLF is recommended as the best cable HIPOT and PD is recommended as the best cable diagnostic test for the determining future performance.
