Aluminum conductors Steel Reinforced (ACSR) is mainly used for feeder in Shinkansen tunnels and transmission lines of electric power company. ACSR sleeves are used for compression connection of ACSR wires. It is physically difficult to inspect the interior conditions of the sleeves by visual inspection after the sleeve provided. Therefore, we studied on a method to detect the defects in the ACSR sleeves after compression. We manufactured a trial apparatus to diagnose the defect and tested it in the field, and verified the effectiveness of the apparatus.
