To measure insulation resistance of 11KV cable between core
& armour, what should be the test voltage & duration?

Answer Posted / sujeet pandey

To measure the insulation resistance of 11kv cable, we need
to keep Megger test voltage at 1kv and take 2 readings; one
at a interval of 15 sec and other at an interval of 1 min.
This will give Absorption Factor which is equal to ratio of
resistance at 1 min to the resistance at 15 sec. If the A.F.
is less than 1.2(a/c to Indian Standards) then the
insulation is not good and we must take the remedy action.

If do more no of earthings at one piller instead of doing more earth pits in many locations and running earth strip around the hanger, I can save the money. Please suggest this method is acceptable as per Is specifications though the Earth resitance of the farthest piller is with in the limits as per IS specifications.
