Kinectrics | HV Transmission Cable Commissioning

Kinectrics completes commissioning tests on underground & sub sea high voltage (HV) transmission class cable systems, identifying life-limiting defects before cables go into operation or after cable repair. Without commissioning, the risks are catastrophic. As an independent service provider testing in compliance with industry standards (IEC 60840, IEC 62067, AEIC CS9, ICEA S-108-720 and HD 632 SCT 36), Kinectrics’ team of experts has successfully commissioned 6,500 km of both onshore and offshore HV cable over the last several decades. Kinectrics owns a fleet of Resonant Test Systems (RTS) globally, allowing for longer and higher voltage cable testing, and rapid deployment of test units in both North America and Europe. Our method of resonant testing, combined with our partial discharge measurement system, is the only effective method to commission high voltage cables.
