Field testing methodology and techniques are presented for measuring parameters for dc transmission lines and earth electrode lines are discussed in this guide. The topics addressed include the basic requirements of measurement, safety cautions, requirements for test instruments, testing induced voltage and current, verifying the polarity and testing insulation resistance, measuring dc resistance, measuring the impedance frequency characteristic, and various factors that can distort measurements.

Guide for the Measurement of Direct Current (DC) Transmission Line and Earth Electrode Line Parameters
This guide specifies testing methods and techniques for measuring electrical characteristics and parameters of direct current (DC) transmission lines, cables, and earth electrode lines. These include the following topics: a) Test safety precautions b) Measuring instrument requirements c) Induced-voltage and induced-current testing d) Anti-interference and fault-removing techniques e) Polarity verification and insulation resistance testing f) Measurement of dc resistance g) Measurement of impedance frequency characteristics
Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.
No Active Standards
These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.
No Superseded Standards
These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.
No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards
These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.
No Inactive-Reserved Standards
