OMPONENTS OF HV CABLES | |||
Element | Construction / Purpose | Material | Standards |
Conductor | Stranded compacted circular conductors to carry continous load and short circuit current. |
Compacted stranded – Class 2, Annealed / Plain Copper/Aluminium |
IS:8130 / IEC: 60228 / BS EN 60228 |
Conductor Screen / Shield |
Conductors for cables rated above 3.3 kV are screened with an extruded layer of semiconducting compound. This eliminates the chance of electrical discharge at the interface between conductor and insulation. | Extruded Semiconducting Compound |
IS:7098-Part 2 / IEC: 60502- Part 2 / BS:6622 / BS:7835 |
Insulation | The insulation is of natural. Cross Linked Polyethylene with high di-electric strength is extruded over semiconducting conductor screening. Thickness of insulation is as per the relevant tables. | XLPE | IS:7098-Part 2 / IEC: 60502- Part 2 / BS:6622 / BS:7835 |
Non-metallic Insulation screen | Cables rated above 3.3 kV will have a screening consisting of non metallic part, in combination with a metallic part over the insulation. The non-metallic part of the screening consists of either a semiconducting tape applied helically or a layer of extruded semi-conducting compound or both. The conductor screening, XLPE insulation and the non-metallic part of insulation screening are all extruded in one operation by TRIPLE EXTRUSION which eliminates the formation of micro voids during the extrusion and curing resulting in longer life of cables. | Extruded Semiconducting Compound | IS:7098-Part 2 / IEC: 60502- Part 2 /BS:6622 / BS:7835 |
Metallic Insulation screen | Bare annealed copper tape / copper wire are applied over insulation screen to carry fault current. | Copper Tape / Wire | IS:7098-Part 2 / IEC: 60502- Part 2 /BS:6622 / BS:7835 |
Laying up | Insulated cores are laid up together, interstices filled up with non hygroscopic fillers to make the cable circular. The phase identifi cation of three core cable is done either by coloured strips / numbered applied on the cores. | Non Hygroscopic PVC / Polypropylene Fiber |
|
Inner Sheath | The cable cores are provided with a common covering of extruded PVC/PE sheath or wrapped plastic tapes as per the requirement of the customer. | PVC / Polyethylene / Halogen Free | IS:7098-Part 2 / IEC: 60502- Part 2 /BS:6622 / BS:7835 |
Armour | GI Round wire / Flat wire (Strip) / Double steel tape armouring is applied over the inner sheath in case of three core cables. The direction of lay of armouring is left hand side of final layer. For single core cables non magnetic armouring is applied over the inner sheath. |
GI / Aluminium – Round wire / Flat strip / Double steel tape / Double Aluminium tape | IS:7098-Part 2 / IS:3975 IEC: 60502- Part 2 /BS:6622 / BS:7835 |
Outer sheath | The cables are provided with an extruded PVC / PE / LSZH / FR / FRLS outer sheath over the armour. For Single core unarmoured cables the outer sheath is extruded over the non magnetic metallic part of insulation screening. Outer sheath is generally of Black colour, but any other colour as per customer requirement can be provided. | PVC / FR PVC / FRLS PVC / Polyethylene / Halogen Free | IS:7098-Part 2 / IEC: 60502- Part 2 /BS:6622 / BS:7835 |
