ELECTRICAL TEST LOW VOLTAGE CABLES
Visual and Mechanical Inspection of Low Voltage Cables
- Inspect cables for physical damage and proper connection in accordance with single line diagram.
- Cable connections shall be torque tested to manufacturer’s recommended values or values recommended in P-000.
- Verify proper terminals and crimping die are used on cable and that crimping procedure is proper.
- Verify cable color codintestg or phasing.
Electrical Tests Low Voltage Cables
- Perform Megger Test on each cable with respect to ground and adjacent cables. For cables 250 volt and less use 500 volt megger; for cables above 250 volt to 600 volt use 1000 volt megger; for cables above 600 volts and less than 1200 volts use 2500 volt megger.
- Perform continuity test to insure proper cable connection.
