Electrical Tests for Cables
Cables are ultimately a means of transmitting electrical energy and in this regard if used in this field
they bear high risks in this regard the endurance and protection they provide in case of danger or very important provide
electrical tests important evidence about the durability of cables Cables are used in many residential and commercial centers
hospitals, cinemas, interests, shopping centers, schools, airports and many other life centers must
these dogs meet the following specifications in case of fire.
) It should not emit flame ( ) It should not transmit flame ( ) The smoke density should be low ( ) It should not contain toxic and corrosive gases ( .
These features can only be demonstrated by the main electrical tests on cables are:-
High voltage tests: In these tests, the insulation resistance of cables under high voltage is tested and whether there is a short circuit in the high voltage vessels.
Transmission resistance and shield attenuation measurements: In these tests, the shielding quality of the cable is determined. Different frequency ranges are applied in the tests.
Conductor resistance measurement tests: These tests measure the resistance of the conductor (copper) inside the cables.
Coaxial cable tests: In these tests, the return losses resulting from irregularities and imbalances in the cable are determined.
Mechanical tests of cables
The purpose of these tests is to measure the resistance of cables against mechanical force. The durability and protection of cables are very important in In case of any danger, mechanical tests are carried out to determine the durability of the cables.
The main mechanical tests on cables are:-
Ultraviolet aging tests In these tests, the durability of cables against rain and snow water, against sunlight and against humidity is determined. The factors that are calculated in the laboratory are formed and their effects are revealed at a later time. Cables are also subjected to tensile and tear tests, assuming visual findings such as cracking, discoloration and tearing.
Hot setting test:- These tests are applied to non-woven materials
