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

Other Activities From This Working Group
Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.
No Active Projects
Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.
No Active Standards
These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.
No Superseded Standards
These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.
No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards
These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.
No Inactive-Reserved Standards
