How do you test the 11KV HT cables?
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.
What value of tester is to be used for measuring insulation resistance of three phase 600V cables?
The typical test equipment for this is a megger. The megger is connected to two conductors at a time to test the insulation between the two.
What are the advantages of Murray loop test compared to Varley loop test?
Murry for long underground cables test but varley usually for short distance.
What is the minimum resistance between phasea in megger test?
infinity
Do you have Megger testing procedures and measurement limits for power cables at 600V rating 250mm plus 50mm THHN?
For 600V insulation Megger NETA & IEEE recommends: Test voltage = 1000V Test Duration = 1 minute Test Value = 100 Megohm minimum (corrected to 20 degrees C) Typically you megger conductor to conductor and conductor to ground. Most will not megger for the full minute and it is up to your discretion. Just watch that the resistance continually increases during the test period. If it is decreasing then you should hold the full minute and investigate the reason. For multiple conductor cables then twist all of the conductors together and pull out one at a time and megger it to the bundle. This will expedite thetesting into as few as tests possible while still thoroughly checking the cable. Note that test voltage and values are based strictly on the insulation rating and the conductor size is pretty much irrelevent.

What is the optimum insulation resistance for 11kV UGcables when tested by 5000v insulation megger?
High voltage cables with this high an insulation factor are usually given a Hi Pot (High Potential) test and not meggered. The potential has to be higher that the working voltage of the cable to be effective when checking for insulation or connector breakdown.

What is the first thing you should do to troubleshoot a network problem related to hardware?
Test with a network cable
What is a Continuity test on Electrical Cables?
Continuity of electrical cables must, because it is the process of inspection to found any discontinuity in the cable
What is the minimum SAT test score?
600, you get a minimum of 200 for each section
What are the advantages of Murray loop test compared to Varley loop test?
Murry for long underground cables test but varley usually for short distance.
What are the values for insulation resistance test?
Values of insulation resistance vary according to the type of insulators and the size of the conducting material inside the insulators, for instance insulation resistance of wires or cables are determined according to type of insulation PVC-PE-XLPE-..... etc and the size of the conductor, and the standard which the wires or cables are designed upon. For example BS 5308 standard states that cables of conductors 0.5, 1, and 1.5 with PVC insulation should have a minimum insulation resistance of 25 Mohm.km . but cables with PE insulation should have a minimum insulation resistance of 5 Gohm.km ...... Now you may realize the difference in IR values. I hope I manage to make it clear image for the answer.
What is the difference between speaker cables and instrument cables?
Speaker cables may not necessarily need shielding if legnths are kept short. Istrument cables are shielded and kept to short stadardized lengths to prevent the introduction of noise which would affect the accuracy of the test reading.
What is the difference between an Insulation Resistance Test and a Continuity Test for Electric Cables?
A continuity test checks to ensure that there is no break in the conductors. An insulation test checks to ensure that the insulation is sound.
What is the minimum number of hypotheses necessary for a statistical test?
The minimum number is two: the hypothesis which you wish to test and alternative to that hypothesis. The latter may be rather loosely described.
How do you use a meggar?
A megger is used to test the resistance of high voltage cables, insulation and motor windings. The test employs a megohm meter.
