Popis: Most of power failures occur at cable joints in Hydro-Quebec underground conduit network. Some are due to partial discharges inside these joints and the corresponding degradation of their electrical insulation. Hydro-Quebec Distribution conduit network consist mainly of XLPE cable with rubber premoulded accessories. In 2001, Hydro-Quebec started a research project for the diagnosis of underground cable and their accessories. This project was implemented for safety issues, to perform predictive maintenance and to withdraw defective accessories before failure.
