IEEE Recommended Practice for Installation, Termination, and Testing of Insulated Power Cable as Used in Industrial and Commercial Applications

Abstract

A guide for installing, splicing, terminating, and field proof testing of cable systems in industrial and commercial applications is provided. It is not intended to be a design document,although many of the problems of installation can be avoided by designing cable layouts within the installation limits of this recommended practice.

Scope

This recommended practice provides a guide for installation, splicing, terminating and field proof testing of cable systems as used in industrial and commercial applications. It is not intended to be a design document. Although many of the problems of installation can be avoided by designing cable layouts with the installation limits of this recommended practice.

Purpose

To revise and update the existing standard 576. To expand the use of this standard for all industrial and commercial applications. The installation practices recommended for the petrochemical industry can also be applied to other industrial and commercial applications.
