If no PD is detected, this does not necessarily imply that an item of HV/EHV Plant is free from PD. PD can vary in its
magnitude and severity and insulation structures can fail through causes other than those attributable to partial
discharges.

Under no circumstances are earth/ground connections to be loosened,
disconnected or otherwise altered to allow installation of this equipment.
It is acknowledged that connecting RFCTs within High Voltage cable
enclosures is the only means of connection in some situations. This is not
a preferred method due to the closer proximity to high voltage
conductors. To avoid danger, the operator's safety rules must be observed
and careful consideration given to the placement, installation and ongoing
inspection of sensors, connecting leads and test equipment.
The operator is responsible for assessing risks and ensuring that the RFCT,
the connecting leads and the test equipment are connected safely.
