In this study, we determined the dry-band arc resistance of three ADSS fiber optic cables. The cables were manufactured by different companies. The tests were performed according to the description given in IEEE 1222 ADSS Electrical Test. The basic concept of the test is that the energized cable is sprayed by salt water for few minutes. This produces conducting wet layer on the cable surface and initiate leakage current. This current causes to decrease the lifetime of the cable. Using the statistical tools, presented the lifetimes of the cable is investigated the pdf, reliability, failure rates.
