| Insulation resistance test | annually, or per class survey cycle for essential circuits |
|---|---|
| Visual inspection of sheath, glands and supports | every 6-12 months |
| Termination torque check | at commissioning and after any disturbance |
| Insulation resistance, 0.6/1kV power cable | generally expected well above the applicable minimum (commonly quoted around 1 M-ohm as an absolute floor) - a declining trend across surveys matters more than a single reading |
|---|---|
| Sheath/jacket damage before repair is required | any breach exposing armour or insulation in a wet or hazardous area should be treated as needing repair or replacement, not left in service |
Ranges are typical for this design class. Always confirm against the manufacturer documentation for your serial number.
Surveyors check cable sizing against the load calculation, insulation resistance test records, fire-rated penetration sealing at bulkhead/deck crossings, and correct segregation from other services. Essential-circuit cables are usually covered under the electrical periodic survey rather than continuous survey.
Estimated lifetime: Fixed marine SWA/XLPE power cables of this type are typically designed for 20-25+ years of service in a properly installed and protected run; actual life is governed by installation conditions (heat, chafe, UV, flexing) rather than by operating hours
