Continued maintenance of power cables is vital to ensure the reliability of power distribution systems because fixing faults after they occur can be challenging, expensive and time consuming. Routine maintenance minimises the occurrence of cable […]
Although power cables are manufactured in controlled environments with sophisticated monitoring, cable failures do occur. Different types of cables are prone to specific types of failures. Since the 1990s, cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) cables have become […]
The power sector is undergoing dynamic transformation with constantly increasing generation and transmission requirements. However, inadequate and obsolete networks are a key challenge. Even though investments in new transmission lines present an ideal solution, these […]
