This guide provides recommendations for the in-service visual inspection, application, care, maintenance, and electrical and mechanical testing of insulating flexible sling, including core, attachments, insulating sheath, for use during live line work on voltages up to 1000 kV alternating current (AC) and ±800 kV direct current (DC). Testing pertains only to preventive electrical and mechanical tests that may be performed periodically to check if there is any reduction in the electrical performance, mechanical performance, and both electrical and mechanical performance of the insulating flexible sling.
