��������������������������������������� ������� Qualitative Tests (Shake & Bake, Torture Tests, Elephant
Tests, etc.)� Do not Quantify the Life Characteristics of the Product
� May Increase Reliability by Revealing Probable Failure Modes
� May Assist in Design of Qualitative Test
� Will Not Help You Determine Reliability of the Product UnderNormal Use Conditions
� Quantitative Tests� Tests Are Designed to Quantify the life characteristics of the
product under normal use conditions and provide reliabilityinformation
� Time-to-failure information (or time to an event) is required sincethe failure of the product is what we are interested in.

Accelerated Aging in Water-FilledTanks
� Designed to Reduce The Amount of Time Required for:� Dielectric Failures During Aging� Reductions in AC Breakdown Strength� Changes in Some Other Diagnostic Measurement (i.e., Impulse
Breakdown Strength)
� An Attempt to Simulate Worst-Case Field-Aging Conditions� Wet Environment� Elevated Conductor Temperatures� Elevated Electrical Stress� Surges
� Underlying Assumption is That Aging Mechanism In TanksUnder Accelerated Conditions Is Similar To Aging Mechanismin a Wet Field Environment

Preconditioning
� An Attempt to Normalize Peroxide Decomposition By-Product Levels Prior to ACLT By Heating the CableConductor in Free Air for a Period of Time
� Similar to Dry Cyclic Aging Test in AEIC Specifications
� Peroxide Decomposition By-Product Level Will AffectACLT Results - (Just As It Affects AC BreakdownResults on New Cables)
� Many Preconditioning Schemes Utilized
� Touchy Subject!

Data Acquisition and Monitoring
� Follow Guidelines Outlined in IEEE Guide P1407 “Guide forAccelerated Aging Tests for Medium-Voltage ExtrudedElectric Power Cables Using Water-Filled Tanks”
� Reproducibility of ACLT Data Will Depend on PreciseControl of Factors That Accelerate Aging
� These Factors Should Be Controlled Over the Entire Durationof the ACLT
� Control Can and Should Be Demonstrated With Good DataAcquisition and Monitoring

Prior EPRI-Sponsored WorkRP2713-02 (1985-1997)
� Correlation Between Cable Life in ACLT (GMTF -Geometric Mean Time to Failure) and Remaining ACBreakdown Strength (GMBD - Geometric MeanBreakdown Strength) Was Established For XLPE Cables� GMTF - From Lognormal Analysis of ACLT Failure Times
� GMBD - From Lognormal Analysis of AC Breakdown Results
� Results Were Extrapolated to Aging Conditions Seen inthe Field
