Abstract
In this paper, a methodical approach for the in-situ monitoring of the mechanical wear of electrical conductors is presented. The state of life can be assessed by means of the characteristic attenuation of an applied high-frequency alternating current. The advantages of this approach include its non-destructive nature and the applicability to installed and otherwise inaccessible conductors.
