Phase to Earth, Neutral to Earth. Continuity tests are to be done before termination of
cable accessories and Final DB Incoming Breakers. The readings / measurement are to
be recorded on the test reports which are to be signed, dated by the Supervisor, Project
Engineer and Consultant Engineer. These Test Reports are to be later filed and
submission with Final Handover to Client.

5.3 Finishing Termination

little excess loop in incomer cable for future maintenance requirements.

5.3.2 Secondly terminate another end at Metering Panel’s cut-out fuses and neutral
link.

5.3.3 To complete the DB dressing, ensure that the Final Load Schedule or Single
Line Diagram is fixed on the DB Door, all breaker should be identified with a legend
sticker fixed in the middle of the breaker assembly.

5.3.4 Identify the Meter belongings to units and waiting the TNB meter to be install.

6. Testing and Commissioning

6.1 Initial insulation testing is done prior to start of DB & Cut-out fuse dressing works as
mentioned above. Final insulation test, continuity tests is to be done prior to Consultant’s
inspection. (Refer to Figure 1 for configuration of Megger Test)

Figure 1

6.2 Insulation (Megger) Testing

6.3 Pre-Test Preparation Megger Testing

6.3.1 The leads used for connecting megger testing with the circuit should be fault
free and the two connecting leads should have electrical continuity. It is checked by
touching the free ends of the leads together while the megger button is pressed ON to
check for zero resistance.

6.3.2 Check for PVC adopters are provided for cables and male adapter for all PVC
conduits terminating in the panel board.

6.3.3 Check the dressing is complete for all the cables in the panel boards &
metering panel.

6.3.4 Confirm all the connections are completed before the testing.

6.4 Electrical Continuity Test Megger Testing

6.4.1 Connect the free megger test probes to any two conductors required to be
tested

6.4.2 With all the appliance connected or the two ends of the conductors shorted
and all Switches switched ON the reading shown on the megger should be zero. If the
reading shows “INFINITY”, then there is an open circuit. The fault should be traced and
rectified.

6.4.3 For cables, the extreme ends of any two phase is shorted and when the test is
conducted the reading should be zero if the meter reads infinity or some value of mega
ohms then there is a fault in the cable and it should be rectified. Same procedure shall
be repeated for other 3 conductors of the cable.

6.5 Short Circuit Test / Insulation Resistance Test

6.5.1 For Cables;

6.5.1.1 For cables the circuit is tested, Megger range should be 1000V

6.5.1.2 Between Phase and Neutral

6.5.1.3 Between Phase to Earth

6.5.1.4 Between Neutral to Earth

6.5.2 With the other ends of the circuit conductor open the value should be infinity
for all the test. If the value is zero, there is short circuit or the insulation of the wire is
damaged and the wire is changed accordingly.

7. Quality Issues

7.1 There are many reasons why a cable may fail in service, with the failure at its most
serious resulting in fire or other serious fault. Some of the main causes of cable failure
include:

7.1.1 Ageing

7.1.1.1 The service life of a cable can be significantly reduced if it has been
expected to operate outside of the optimal operating conditions it was designed for. The
ageing process usually results in embrittlement, cracking and eventual failure of the
insulating and sheathing materials, exposing the conductor and risking a potential short
circuit, a likely cause of electrical fire.

7.1.2 Application

7.1.2.1 If cable selected is not appropriate for the application it is more likely to
fail in service. For example, a cable which is not robust enough for the environment,
either mechanically tough enough to wear and abrasion or chemically resistant to the
ambient conditions, is more likely to fail than one whose construction is suitable for the
installation environment.

7.1.3 Mechanical Failure

7.1.3.1 If the cable is damaged either during installation or in subsequent use,

the integrity of the cable will be affected and reduce its service life and suitability.

7.1.4 Degrading of the Cable Sheath

7.1.4.1 There are several reasons why the sheathing material may degrade,
including excessive heat or cold, chemicals, weather conditions, and abrasion of the
sheath. All of these factors can ultimately cause electrical failure as the insulated cores
are no longer protected by the sheathing as originally designed.

PROJECT DEPARTMENT OF CENTRAL PARK DAC PLOT 6-2 中央公园 PLOT6-2 项目部

7.1.5 Moisture in the Insulation

7.1.5.1 Moisture ingress can cause significant problems including short circuit
and corrosion of the copper conductors.

7.1.6 Heating of Cable

7.1.6.1 Excessive heating of the cable will cause degradation of the insulation
and sheathing material and premature failure. The heat may come from an external
source or may be generated by the resistance to current flow in the conductor - a
particular problem if the cable is overloaded and/or underrated for the application.

7.1.7 Electrical Overloading

7.1.7.1 Electrical overloading normally occurs when the cable is underrated for
the application or when too much load is being placed on the cable. In domestic
applications this is often a result of plugging too many appliances into the one socket and
overloading the wiring to that individual socket, extension adaptor or gang socket.

7.1.8 Rodent Attack

7.1.8.1 Rodents frequently attack the outer layers of cables. This damage can be
extensive, significantly reducing the sheathing or insulation properties of the cable,
another likely source of electrical fires.

7.1.9 UV Exposure

7.1.9.1 UV exposure can have a significant influence on electrical cable

insulation and sheathing. Cables likely to be exposed to UV light should either be
designed with UV resistant materials with a suitable carbon black content, or protected
from exposure with a protective covering such as installing inside cable conduit so not in
direct sunlight. UV exposure frequently causes cracking of the insulation and therefore
potential short circuit failures.
