BPN448: Integrity Assessment of Underground Power Distribution Cables

Abstract: 

A serious worldwide infrastructure problem is the sudden, often dramatic failure of underground high- voltage AC power distribution cables. This research is aimed at finding economical ways of measuring the health of in-service cables operating at tens of kilovolts, to permit their selective replacement.
