Revision Standard - Active.
The application of the analysis of gases dissolved in the fluids of fluid-filled cable systems is discussed in this standard with respect to the procedures for sampling, obtaining the dissolved gas data, and analyzing the results.

The scope of this guide is to furnish an understanding of the conditions that generate gases in paper and laminated paper-polypropylene insulated fluid-filled cable systems; to establish a recommended method for sampling, data collection, analysis; and to identify possible remedial actions for systems with high dissolved gas-in-fluid content.
This guide is intended to provide users of pipe-type cable systems, both high-pressure fluid-filled (HPFF) and high-pressure gas-filled (HPGF), as well as self-contained fluid-filled (SCFF) cable systems with the basis to establish the use of gas-in-fluid analysis for diagnostic purposes, part of condition assessment, and as a maintenance tool.
