9.10 Cable testing
9.10.1 Cable testing via cable plugs
DANGER
Mortal danger due to non-interlocked switch-disconnector
If the cable compartment cover is removed, the switch-disconnector is not interlocked
during the cable test. Switching to CLOSED position can cause an internal arc or an electric
shock.
⇨ Observe the Five Safety Rules.
⇨ Fit switching prohibition signs.
⇨ Padlock the locking device (option).
WARNING
Mortal danger due to overvoltages
Cable testing with connected cables represents a special stress for the isolating distance. If
the busbar of the switchgear under test or the opposite substation are live with operating
voltage, no overvoltages may occur.
⇨ Overvoltages must be avoided by suitable measures taken by the switchgear operator.
NOTICE
High test voltage
The test voltage can damage connection cables, cable plugs and voltage detecting systems.
⇨ Observe the manufacturer information related to the connection cables, cable plugs and
voltage detecting systems (maximum test values).
