During the last few years we have seen an increasing demand for non-invasive test methods for evaluating the condition of circuit breakers. Regardless if the circuit breaker is installed in a conventional substation, a switchgear or a Gas Insulated Substation (GIS), the industry has moved to try to perform a complete diagnostic without intervening any working connection; that means, testing both sides grounded systems and taking measurements without disconnecting secondary cables of the circuit breaker.
