f) The A. C. test voltage shall be 33.6 kV for 5 minutes for 20kV power cables and 24.4 kV for 5
minutes for 15kV cables. (which is 80% of Factory test voltage values).
g) Increase the AC voltage smoothly to test voltage between terminal R phase of cable to earth
duration five minutes.
h) All the values to be recorded as shown in the site test format.
i) Reduce the voltage gradually to zero.
j) Discharge the tested terminal R phase by using the discharge earth.
k) Repeat the above procedure for S & T phase of cable for HV test.
l) On completion of tests the cable shall be left with all cores and shields grounded, to allow the
residual charge to dissipate.
m) Insulation resistance (IR) of cable shall be measured after HV test,
n) Ensure the healthiness of the cable insulation through the IR test value.
