3. Cabling Diagram christos.zamantzas@cern.ch3  Screen of HV BNC is open on the IC side to assure there is no ground loop.  Internal screen to shield low frequency noise (GND only on electronics side, IC is floating).  External screen to shield high frequency noise.

4. 11.5 +/-0.3 8.71 7.94 8.03 7.3 8.07 7.98 7.25 2.6 PE CU AL-PETP-AL PETP High Mu FE PETP Brown polyolefinSI-CU 23x9x0.16 SI-CU 23x9x0.16 Diameter in [mm] Cable: Signal -(1000V)- Screen 1 –(500V)- Screen 2 (Triaxial) At random positions discovered shorts between the two shields. Not possible to be used with Triaxial functionality. CKB50: non-conformity christos.zamantzas@cern.ch4 Isolation between the two shields not optimal. Added additional steps for the connector assembly to avoid leaks. 15/08/2013

5. Cabling Non-Conformities christos.zamantzas@cern.ch5  Internal and External screen are shorted in multiple and random places.  Non-conformity (most probable) due to thin insulator. BNC SMA TRIAX Connector Types: Ionization Chamber enclosed in cable traytube cable non-conformities 50 ÷ 200 m~ 5 m~ 1 m CKB 50 BNCSMA Acquisition Card (BLEDP) External Screen 2 Internal Screen 1 Signal HV Power Supply (~1500 V) HV BNC 15/08/2013

6. Alternative Cabling Configuration christos.zamantzas@cern.ch6  Connect both shields together on both sides  Leave the ground on the detector side floating  Configuration will be very similar like in LHC system. BNC SMA TRIAX Connector Types: Ionization Chamber enclosed in cable traytube cable non-conformities 50 ÷ 200 m~ 5 m~ 1 m CKB 50 BNCSMA Acquisition Card (BLEDP) External Screen 2 Internal Screen 1 Signal HV Power Supply (~1500 V) HV BNC 15/08/2013

7. Meeting with manufacturer On the first meeting agreed:  Modification of the specifications  Two more PET-foils over the magnetic screen.  No problems mounting the connector.  The electrical properties will not change.  Manufacturer to run a trial until end of September  We will test the sample and release the cable until mid-October  If all ok, manufacture about 6km until end of November  Re-installation to begin mid-January. christos.zamantzas@cern.ch715/08/2013

8. Next steps Next week, meet with manufacturer on financial matters.  Costs of the new production  Handling of the stock already at CERN Decide if we continue with the installation or remove all and wait for the new production.  Currently the issue affects 32 detectors  During LS2, 80 additional will need to be installed. christos.zamantzas@cern.ch815/08/2013
