Papers on the use of diagnostics for Underground Distribution Systems

Diagnostics are generally used to improve reliability and reduce cost by:

  • Implement Commissioning Tests so that defective equipment or installation can be identified and repaired as soon as possible
  • Conduct Asset Health assessments to guide O&M or Replacement activities

Diagnostic Activities are supported in the standards arena by a series of documents:

  • IEEE 400.0
  • IEEE 400.2
  • IEEE 400.3
  • IEEE 400.6
