Abstract :
The history of field testing of medium voltage cable systems as a method for improving operation of this sensitive segment is traced from the late 1940´s to the present. Concurrent with improvements in cable manufacture and testing methods, the effort of responsible users to improve service reliability through the use of increased test voltages and the development in IEEE-Power Engineering Society (PES)-insulated Conductors Committee (ICC) of a standardized field cable system test procedure are described.
