New IEEE Standard - Inactive-Reserved.
This guide will discuss the importance of failure analysis on cable, joints, and terminations used in power systems rated 5kV through 46kV. Users should review the definitions and technical papers that are listed in the References and in the Bibliography to gain an understanding of failure analysis issues. Why a cable, joint, or termination fails is an important part of understanding trends and planning for improvements in system reliability.

Why a cable, joint, or termination fails is an important part of understanding trends and planning for improvements in system reliability.
The purpose of this Guide is to provide an umbrella document for a series of guides that will cover specific methods that may be used in the failure analysis of cable, joints and terminations. A separate guide will be proposed to cover the failure analysis of cable, joints and terminations. The additional guides would have the same document number with a decimal extension similar to the C37 and C57 series of standards.
