Detector Cable Inside Containment
Detector cables used inside containment are to be installed and terminated according to procedure
CAUTION
The detector and readout must not be connected during the following test.
Detector Test After Installation
Testing of detector cables after installation is required. A leakage test from the center conductor to the shield should yield better than 1000 megohms at 1000 VDC.
Typical resistance of the center conductor is 0.022 ohm per foot at 20°C (68°F).
Detector Cable Outside Containment
Detector cables used outside containment should be a qualified coaxial type RG 59/U. Ideally, the cable should connect directly from the penetration to the appropriate connectors on Readout Module
