How to megger test 11 kV cable and the acceptance IR value

Answer Posted / Mohit Singh Chauhan

To perform Megger test on an 11 kV cable, follow these steps:
1. Ensure that you have proper safety equipment (rubber gloves, insulating tools, etc.).
2. Disconnect both ends of the cable from its sources.
3. Connect one end of the Megger to one terminal of the disconnected cable and the other end to ground.
4. Record the reading on the Megger. The acceptance IR value for an 11 kV cable is typically less than 50 micro-ohms.

1- XC and the RC time constant are both measures of the reaction of C to a change in ____? 2-The power factor is a numerical ratio with a value between 0 and 1 equal to the ______________ of the phase angle. 3-When V and I are out of phase because of reactance, the product of V times I is called ______________ power 4-For _____________ inductors, the branch currents can be added algebraically. 5- The ______________ power in watts can be calculated as I^2R 6-Calculate XL with L = 30mH and f = 1kHz ( I have Xl=2piFL 2*3.141592653*1kHz*30mH =188 ohms Please check) 7-A parallel RL circuit has the values, R = 5kohms, XL = 5kohms. A voltage source of Vt = 10Vrms is connected in parallel to R and L. Determine the total current, It delivered by the voltage source Vt. 8-A series RC circuit has R = 1Mohm and C = 1microF. How long would it take for the capacitor to fully discharge if it is initially fully charged? 9-A circuit has real power = 300W and an apparent power of 500VA. Determine the power factor and phase angle. 10-The time constant for an LR series circuit is T = 0.1s and R = 10ohms. Calculate the inductance L.
