Abstract :
Condition based maintenance (CBM) is an part of asset management in a liberalised market place for electric energy. For service-aged medium voltage power cable circuits, it is realised by means of cable diagnostics as part of the condition assessment of the underground cable network. Results of the condition assessment are input for the economical and technical assessment. This will give a maintenance concept for cable circuits as part of the total maintenance policy for the network. In this paper, a method of CBM on power cables is given by the authors
