Jacobus, M J

Sandia National Laboratories is currently conducting long-term aging research on representative samples of US nuclear power plant Class 1E cables. The objectives of this program are to determine the suitability of these cables for extended life (beyond 40-year design basis) and to assess various cable condition monitoring (CM) techniques for predicting remaining cable life. 7 refs., 3 figs., 1 tab.
