ABSTRACT

The course provides the general aspects and fundamental concepts about testing procedures for the development, qualification, routine, sample and after laying tests of High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) cable systems, a key enabler for the “Energy Transition”. The course refers to the main existing International Standards and Recommendations for testing extruded and lapped HVDC cable systems, considering the tests on both cables and accessories, as well as on both underground and submarine cables. The influences that the recent advances in the technology of HVDC cables have implied from the testing viewpoint are also emphasized.

Further information about the schedule, the minimum attendance rate and the exam format is outlined HERE and detailed by the instructor during the course.
