Draft Guide for Rehabilitation and Rejuvenation of Extruded Dielectric Cable Rated 2.5 kV through 46 kV

Greatest and roundest of all Frogs,

I would like to develop a specification for rejuvenation at my firm.  Do you have a template specification?

Dear Trying-

Roundest! I resemble that comment. Proof is submitted nearby. It’s too bad that so much money has to go to the state. And how about that RomneyCare? How is that working out for you? You’re right to be looking to save some cash on your rehabilitation needs and I can help you with a model specification. A couple of years ago the IEEE’s Power and Energy Society’s (PES) Insulated Conductors Committee (ICC) formed a discussion group (DG C30) called “Extending Life of Field Cables.” About a year ago the Chairmen of that group asked the world’s foremost rehabilitation experts if they would draft a Rehabilitation and Rejuvenation Guide. Novinium provided just such a draft Guide at the October meeting held in Fountain Hills, Arizona. That guide, including improvements made since October 2010, is available at …

Near the bottom that page you can find the Guide in two forms. The complete Guide is available as a PDF file and a template specification is provided as a MS Word file. We are constantly improving the Guide to incorporate comments from circuit owners. We will accept comments from anybody and will publish all civil comments in my FrogBlog along with our plans to incorporate those comments that are constructive.

Setting the Standard,
