gain information regarding the examined cable termination tube over the filling tape
about the minimum distance from the defect and the
attenuation when placing the sensor farther from the defect.
For this purpose the surface of the termination gridded with 5
mm spacing (fig. 4).

It is important to mention that attenuation was different in Fig. 15. Acoustic signal level in function of the apparent charge of the
the different terminations e.g. in case of termination nr. 4 the discharges on termination nr. 6
signal is almost undetectable farther 10mm of the defect, as it
is shown by Fig. 13. The sensitivity of electrical and acoustic measurements
was also evaluated by the minimum voltage of the detection of
the discharges. Based on the experienced noise levels, 10pC
apparent charge and 0.1mV of 100Hz content of the acoustic
signal were denominated as detectable levels. The results are
listed in Table II.
