Cable Diagnostic Instrumentation and Service

IMCORP is a corporation specializing in the development, design and manufacturing of instrumentation for the diagnostic
testing of shielded power cable systems, and for the provision of cable testing services.
IMCORP serves Europe through its wholly owned subsidiary, IMCORP EUROPE - bvba, and a network of representatives or partners in various European countries. The seat of IMCORP EUROPE is at
Derbystraat 151, B-9051 Sint-Denjis Westrem (Gent) - BELGIUM.

The technology underlying the Imcorp diagnostic test method is the location of partial discharges emanating from defects in cables that are subjected to gradually increasing electrical stress. This stress is achieved by means of the normal alternating power frequency (50/60Hz) voltage. The Imcorp technology, developed 15 years ago at the University of Connecticut (USA), has been utilized to test over 6000 Km of medium voltage cables in North and South America as well as in six European countries. The technology has proved to be particularly accurate, sensitive and robust with respect to ambient noise.
Imcorp's clients include major electric utility companies, industrial customers, airports and large users.

IMCORP's technology is applicable to cables insulated with oil-impregnated paper (PILC) as well as extruded plastic materials.
It allows the testing of straight or branched cables, off-line and on-line. Cable systems may contain defects introduced during their construction or installation. Invariably, age-induced defects show up as a result of cable operation. Diagnostic testing by means of the Imcorp technology helps identifying and correcting these defects, thus eliminating undesirable service outages. Diagnostic testing presents, as well, the most economic alternative between repair, partial replacement or total replacement.
