HD Electric Co. now offers its new Underground Cable Fault Tester, the UCT-8, a lightweight one-piece tool that is used to test underground de-energized primary shielded voltage cables for faults.

Complex grids depend on equipment such as transformers, protection relays, switchgear, and cables—each of which can develop faults not immediately visible during normal operation. As a result, ...

The measurement engineer can view the values from tan δ and partial-discharge testing directly in the cable test van. Clear representation helps to detect severe defects or locate partial discharges ...

Most of the electrical power distribution infrastructure is static, and in many facilities, the mindset for electrical equipment and devices is “set it, and forget it.” However, much of the existing ...

EAST AURORA, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Astronics Corporation (NASDAQ:ATRO), a leading provider of advanced technologies for the global aerospace, defense and semiconductor industries, announced today ...

According to the IEEE Buff Book, "A power cable must be protected from overheating due to excessive short-circuit current flowing in its conductor," which may damage or destroy the insulation. It also ...

AI fault detection uses waveform analytics and machine learning to identify early electrical failure signatures in distribution systems. Utilities gain predictive insight into incipient faults, asset ...

If your circuit design has requirements to be tolerant to certain faults and to report their occurrence, you’ll need to test the fault detection and protection features of your design during the test ...

Wireless device users have long preferred options that give them the ability to charge their devices quickly. At the same time, they don’t want to have to worry about the potential danger associated ...
