| Abstract |
The presentation will outline various electrical test methodologies for Condition Assessment of
Distribution & Transmission Class Cables for both commissioning and maintenance. Specifically DC,
VLF and AC Withstand Testing as well as diagnostic tests such as Partial Discharge and TanDelta
(dielectric spectroscopy) will be discussed along with the advantages, the disadvantages and practical
application of each test methodology. As well, practical applications will be discussed and several
case studies will be presented.

| Special Award |
DEIS President Dr. Hulya Kirkici will make a special trip from Auburn University in Alabama to
present an award to Dr. R John Densley for his work as Editor of the Electrical Insulation Magazine.
Please join us to meet the DEIS president, and in thanking John for all his work.
