Abstract
This apparatus is for evaluation installed cable systems, including those that are already in use. The apparatus measures dissipation factor, partial discharge (corona) and insulation resistance of the cable system; all of these being necessary to determine the condition of the cables. This invention is unique, in that it can be used with installed cable systems that have their metallic shielding grounded; and the apparatus can be mounted on a truck or trailer for movement to any place where an installed system is to be evaluated.
