with a voltage source and a current meter and log log paper.
(hi-pot tester)
plot the voltage vs the current
when the line starts to bend or knee you are close to the failure voltage
you run the voltage up to 2x the operating voltage + 1000v
this detects exposure to moisture and pinholes in insulation
if it cant pass a hi-pot test chances are it wont pass signals reliably either
Yes, you could, but why would you? Maintenance or fault testing on a cable rated at 600 volts involves applying the rated voltage (600 volts) and measuring the leakage current. Doing this test at 250 volts doesn't really test the cable. High potential (hipot) testing involves the application of even higher voltages for test purposes.
The test equipment used to test high voltage cables is a hi-pot test where a high DC voltage is a applied to the cable. This voltage can be from 150% to 200% of the working voltage of the cable.See related links below.

Murry for long underground cables test but varley usually for short distance.
A HiPot test at 2kV can be done as many times as need be. Preventative maintenance programs sometimes schedule for it to be done once a year. Other schedules require more frequent inspections depending on the circumstances and the environment in which the conductor is located.
Hipot is the abbreviation for high potential. A Hipot test is used to verify electrical insulation on finished cables, electric motors transformers, wired assemblies, appliances, and printed circuit boards.

With Hipod leakage current of any circuit (HT Distribution/ Transmission Lines) can be determine and with IR Test insulation resistance between two circuit or parts of machine is determined.
In order to ensure that an Electrical Safety Compliance Tester is safe for use, the product is passed through a rigorous gauntlet of testing. Among these tests are electrical safety tests which are designed to test the electrical integrity of the product itself. These tests include the ground bond (or continuity) test, dielectric withstand or high potential (hipot) test, insulation resistance test, and leakage current test. Each of these tests has unique parameters designed to pinpoint various potential problems with a device. For example, Table 1 outlines common hipot test settings from various NRTL standards.
The MV in MV photon means megavolt

.mv was created in 1996.
MV Wickersham ended in 1974.
Continuity of electrical cables must, because it is the process of inspection to found any discontinuity in the cable
