The thermal data that prevents cable failure
Buried cables generate a significant amount of heat. When backfill materials fail to dissipate that heat effectively, temperatures can rise, increasing the risk of cable failure and potentially leading to environmental disaster.
Increasing energy needs
The growing number of data centers, solar farms, and wind farms worldwide means that more high-voltage cables are being buried than ever before. To reduce the risk of thermal runaway causing cable failure, costly repairs, and impacts to people, infrastructure, and ecosystems above ground, installers send samples to Basalt Ridge Testing Laboratory.
Basalt Ridge trusts METER for speed and accuracy
Basalt Ridge knows their customers are pouring and filling on tight schedules and bad data causes wasted time and money, in the best case scenarios. That's why they rely on METER's TEMPOS Thermal Properties Analyzer to take all of their thermal conductivity and resistivity measurements.
