Frequently Asked Questions

What is Partial Discharge Detection?
Partial discharge (PD) detection is a technique used to identify small electrical discharges within insulation systems, particularly in high voltage cables. These discharges indicate potential faults or weaknesses in the insulation that could lead to failures if left unaddressed. The CableData® Collector detects and measures PD activity in live cables, allowing for early intervention to prevent larger issues. Learn more about partial discharge detection and its role in asset management.
How Does the CableData® Collector Enhance Predictive Maintenance?
The CableData® Collector supports predictive maintenance by continuously collecting data on MV/HV cable conditions. This data enables asset managers to identify trends and potential issues, helping them schedule maintenance proactively rather than reactively. By addressing cable health early, organisations can reduce unexpected outages, improve reliability, and extend the lifespan of their high-voltage assets.
Is the CableData® Collector Compatible with All Cable Types?
Yes, the CableData® Collector is compatible with various insulated cable types, including both single and three-phase cables. This versatility makes it suitable for a wide range of applications, from utility networks to industrial facilities.
What Additional Support Is Available for CableData® Collector Users?
EA Technology offers expert analysis, reporting, and training for CableData® Collector users, helping teams make the most of their data.
