A New Practical Compact System for On-site Testing
Advanced on-site testing capabilities
The ability to perform on-site commissioning tests on HV XLPE cables is a significant and practical asset to utilities installing such cables. Kinectrics now offers advanced services for high voltage field testing using the only commercially available Resonant Test System (RTS) in North America.
The variable frequency Resonant Test System (RTS) is capable of performing post-installation tests on long lengths of transmission class XLPE cables. This compact, trailer-mounted equipment is capable of testing long lengths of installed HV XLPE cable systems (83 A at 260 kV). The system can be easily configured and ready after a very short preparation time on site.
The Resonant Test System is also equipped with state-of-the art partial discharge detection equipment to identify incipient cable system flaws.
Ensuring reliability
Kinectrics' Resonant Test System can ensure reliability through testing services that include:
Over voltage post installation high potential tests:
Partial discharge testing:
