Testing & Repairs
In addition to custom grounding cable assemblies, Arnett also has expertise in grounding cable repairs, bypass jumper cable repairs, and certification testing of field-used grounds and bypass jumpers. Our staff works hard and prides themselves in their ability to work with customers to get them what they actually need, whether that is a simple repair, a brand new cable entirely, or even a new hot line tool or cutter such as a Chance grip-all “shotgun”, an HK Porter cable cutter, or Klein tools.
Cables are cleaned before testing. Cables passing the certification test will be given a date sticker and returned with test reports.
As a NAIL accredited test lab, Arnett Testing is highly-regarded as experts in testing field-used grounding and jumper cables. There are two options for testing:
Lab Testing:
Send your grounding and jumper cables to Arnett’s lab for testing. Upon receiving the cables, we will clean, inspect, and dielectrically test the cables to the highest standards. If the cables pass, we will place a dated sticker on them and ship back to your location. If the cables do not pass, we are able to do repairs(upon your authorization) and will try to save you money by repairing the cables, instead of replacing them.
Field Testing:
If you are located in the Pacific Northwest, Arnett can come to your location to perform the testing. Click here for more information.
