• Dimensional checking on sample off-cut i.e. construction consistency, insulation thickness, external sheath screen, armours and mans of main components.

• Visual checking in respect of cable formation, core and external sheath colors, marking legibility.

• Testing on material sample i.e. conductor coating, insulation external jacket for elongation, heat strocle blending and characteristics of armour, metal and sheath components including zinc coating.
