Comparison of failure detection capability of available low-voltage cable diagnostic methods

Data-driven technology for prognostics and health management of the cable system at a railway control centre: investigation of the insulation resistance of a cable system under the influence of moisture

“…Thus, these approaches for middle and high voltage power cables cannot be applied to the functional test of low voltage railway cables when a signal disturbance occurs and is to be examined. Furthermore, information about measurements, operating parameters and influencing factors cannot be specified with absolute certainty, as it is difficult to distinguish the symptoms of faults from the noise level or other residual signals along a cable [8–18 ]. Therefore, little work has been reported on continuous condition monitoring for railway diagnosis [1, 5, 19–22 ].…”
