Reclosing (re-energizing) underground transmission cable after a fault

I am trying to research the requirement to wait or not a predetermined amount of time (“x” minutes) to re-energize an underground transmission line that was taken out of service (tripped) by a relay action.

The case I am after is the one where the cause of the outage or trip has been determined and confirmed to be external to the underground cable; in other words the UG cable is in good operating condition. We are assuming that the fault was momentary or the faulted piece has been removed, bypassed and/or repaired.

I understand that there is trapped energy in the cable even after it is de-energized; would this trapped energy have any detrimental effect on the good cable if the cable is re-energized without dissipating it?

P.S. The UG cables in our system operate at voltages ranging from 60kV up to 230kV. The type of UG cables we operate are High-Pressure Fluid-Filled (HPFF) pipe-type, High-Pressure Gas-Filled (HPGF) pipe-type and XLPE.

Sounds like a job for a professional, so I'm puzzled as to why there is no one there with this knowledge and experience (or is this hypothetical?).

Not to be sarcastic, But I have used and become familiar with most of the types/brands of electrical testing equipment on the market, and looked through my records and files, and I'll be darned if I can find any "assumed" brand name test equipment listed for the electrical industry. If that is the type you are using make sure you have your plot picked out and your coffin ordered. Unless it is your intention to go the creamation route, in which case you could quite easily endup 1/2 way there operating that level of potential with that level of verification. On the other hand, if systems operation/ onsite safety standard exists, it probably incororates or mentions that by the time the line is tested for the cause of the trip, ie and unintentional ground, transformer failure, etc, and verified the fault is indeed cleared by a trained competent professional, power may then be restored per startup procedures of the facility in question. It isn't the porch light breaker that tripped.
