Abstract :
Through a comprehensive and aggressive research program, the Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Inc. (Con Edison) has designed, developed and installed several new products to address the environmental impact of leaked dielectric fluid from pipe-type cable systems. These include online leak detection, leak location, retractable flow direction indicator, full stop joints and transition joints. This paper describes the application of the aforementioned products on the Con Edison underground transmission system
