IEEE 1017-2004

Procedures and test voltage values for acceptance and maintenance testing of ESP cable systems are presented. This procedure applies to cable systems rated 3 kV and 5 kV (phase to phase).
The purpose of this recommended practice is as follows: a) Provide a guideline for performing leakage current so it can be used as a cable quality tool b) Provide guidelines for evaluation of the test results c) Define terms that have a specific meaning to the recommended practice
Revision Standard – Superseded. Procedures and test voltage values for acceptance and maintenance testing of electrical submersible pump (ESP) cable systems are presented. This recommended practice applies to cable systems rated 3 kV and 5 kV (phase to phase) and is intended only for this special-purpose cable. The intent is to provide uniform test procedures and guidelines for evaluation of the test results.
