High Voltage CablesThe history of cables Since its establishment in 1913, Prysmian Cables and Systems 8.V. has developed into a leading Global manufacturer of cable systems. Prysmian Cables and Systems B.V. has pioneered and patented the development of extruded cable systems, such as the prefabricated stress cone (1964), the prefabricated joint body (1965), the ine cross-linking of extruded cables (1970) and the clck-fit range of accessories (1990). Today Prysmian Cables and Systems B.V. is part of the Prysmian Group, a leading player in the industry of high-technology cables and systems for energy and telecommunications, with more than 50 production plants in 21 countries worldwide. In addition, the Group has @ worldwide network of sales and representative offices. Prysmian Cables and Systems B.V. is based in Delft, the Netherlands. We produce energy cables ranging from low voltage (1kV) to high voltage (500k) for land and submarine application, along with compatible Click-Fit® accessories. All ‘our products are tailored to meet the customer's requirements. ‘Our company has been at the cutting edge of high voltage cable technology for several decades. We hhave experience in supplying all types of high voltage cable systems throughout the world, based on a full turnkey engineering service and installation capability. Our extended after sales services is second to none, with 24/7 Emergency ‘and Condition-Based Maintenance, on-site Fault Location, Diagnostics and Assessments, Material Qualification and Testing in our HV Laboratory.Environmental and reliability aspects When planning a new supply route, environmental factors have to be taken into account due to mandatory regulations and public opinion. The XLPE cables are environmentally-friendly anc safe due to XLPE’s insolubility in water and its Inert, halogen-free chemical structure. The cable system is out of sight and the cable route limited compared with overhead lines, Once installed, the site generally can revert to Its originally intended purpose, thus resulting in considerable savings. Reducing the electrical and magnetic fields is also becoming more important, The cable system can be designed based on a range of magnetic field requirements, with zero external electrical fields. Cable systems offer better safety for personnel and public alike, with fewer danger situations owing to accidental contact or flashovers. Network reliability is all important because loss of power has high cost consequences. Cable systems are less vulnerable to failure compared with overhead lines. Prysmian sets high standards Our high standards are certified according to the ISO 8001:2000 Quality Management and 150 14001 Environmental Management System Standard. The production, testing and installation of cable systems is subject to standards agreed between the customer and Prysmian Cables and Systems B.V.. These range from the generally accepted standards, such as IEC and AEIC, to the customer's specific requirements or standards that apply locally.High Voltage XLPE cable production Since the introduction of polymeric insulation, we have made an important contribution to the development of extruded dielectric cables. Intensive research on materials, together with the processing and investment in advanced extrusion ‘machinery, led to the commercial use of the long land die dry-curing process for the manufacture of high voltage and extra high voltage cables, which ‘meet the highest quality standards. In a triple extrusion process, the semi-conductive conductor screen, the insulation and the insulation screen are applied simultaneously. The temperature of the materials leaving the extrusion head is. relatively low so as to prevent premature cross~ linking, Cross-linking proper takes place at a high temperature and high pressure in the electrically heated long die, where the materials are heated to the temperature required to activate the chemical reaction effectuating the cross-linking. Gradual cooling at high pressure after cross-linking prevents the formation of voids and the creation of internal mechanical stresses. DLA let eS etry Cable finishing Prysmian Cables and Systems B.V. offer a variety of cable finishing: - lead alloy sheath; = welded aluminium sheath; = copper wire screen, In addition, Prysmian Cables and Systems B.V. can produce the following optional finishing: - lead alloy sheath with copper wire screen; ~ welded aluminium sheath with copper wire screen; ~ copper wire screen with aluminium laminated foil or copper foil; = integrated optical fibres for distributed tempe- rature measurements; ~ aluminium wires or steel armouring; = LSOH outer sheath; ~ extruded semi-conductive layer an outer sheath. Prysmian Cables and Systems B.V. have the capa~ bility of handling 80 tons maximum gross weight of delivery drums. This allows for the production of very long {E)HV cable lengths of up to 3.2 km. Specific cable constructions and test regimes can be offered on request.Cable ‘ype o( 0 offoGs ] Sample A evi conductor Longitudinal watertgn® soli aluminiom rod Conductor screen Extrude semiconducting copalymer ‘compound Insulation Insulation screen Extrude semiconducting copalyner ‘compound sedding Semiconducing water blocking topes Metallic sheath Extrude lead alloy ‘Outer sheath 0 Lo 0 foe) YMekrvasdhad conductor Longitudinal watertight stranded and compacted copper, ncuding binder tape Conductor screen Extruded semiconducting copalymer compouns Insulation Insulation screen Extruded semiconducting copalymer ‘compound edding Semiconducing water blocking tapes Metallic screen Alayer of copper wire hell and 2 copper contac tape counter hele Separation tape Semiconducting water blocking and bindes Radial water barrier ‘Numiniam fo laminate Outer sheath Extruded PE (5) 7) Sample ¢ evAKivbad Conductor Longtusinal watertight segmental Stranded and compacted copper, including binder tape Conductor screen Extrude semiconducting copolymer compound Insulation Insulation screen Extrude semiconducting copolymer compound Bedding Semiconducting water blocking tapes Metallic sheath ‘Aluminum welded sheath ‘Outer sheath 05 FPRYSMIANDAOC esr Sample constructions 72kV cables 36/66kV area Single core, XLPE insulated ty cason high voltage power cables Constructional data 8 6 2 mB 7 7 9% 103 ie opp canautr ee ee iarweoe ‘With asian conducir Tin 3810s TIS _118_ta7_130_155_165 with shat it cops conauctor Wim 1S 13215918211 _224_2oa_ 286 Minar beneng ie Beg abe yes a eT Electrical properties at 66KV and 50 Hz minum Max.

The thickness of the metallic sheath and/or cross section of the cop- per wires screen can be adjusted according to the required single phase short circuit rating Where loading is cyclic, an appreciable increase in current capacities may be justified. Refer to |EC Publication 60853 for a calculation of the cyclic ratings. Impedances, such as positive and negative se~ quence impedances and zero sequence impedance are strongly dependant on the laying configurati- ‘on, metallic sheath bonding and other conductive elements parallel to the cable route, Therefore these impedances are calculated according to each situation and confirmed via measurements ‘on completion of circuit. Selecting a power cable Different kinds of power cable constructions are required to transport electrical energy from the power station to the consumer. The following factors are important when selecting a suitable cable construction: + Maximum operating voltage + Insulation level + Frequency + Load carried + Daily load curve + Magnitude and duration of possible overload currents phase-to-phase and phase-to-earth + Connection between overhead and cable line (direct connection or via transformer) + Insulation level of equipment (bare conductor insulators, arresters, etc) + Voltage drop + Length of line + Profile of line + Mode of installation: ~ underground (ducted or non-cucted) - overground (if in a tunnel, the dimensions and mode of ventilation of the tunnel) * Chemical and physical properties of the soit = whether rocky, sandy, clayey or boggy; moist or dry ~ chemical agents liable to cause corrosion et. — maximum thermal resistivity of the soil + Maximum and minimum ambient air and soil tem- peratures, taking into account adjacent hot-water pipes and other factors liable to heat the cables + Specifications and requirements that apply + The cable should be economical to use; an opti- mum cross-sectional area can be calculated based ‘on the capital costs of the cable and running costs incurred by the power losses in the cable. 6 PRYSMIAN 4DAOC esr Voltages Rated Voltage The voltage which forms the basis for certain operating characteristics and test conditions is called the rated voltage and is denoted Uo/U where Uo = the rated rms. power frequency voltage between each conductor and sheath or sheath for which cables and accessories are designed. Us the rated rum.s. power frequency voltage between any two conductors for which cables and accessories are designed. Operating voltage Un = the maximum r.m.s, power-frequency voltage between any two conductors for which cables and accessories are designed This is the highest voltage that can be sustained under normal operating conditions at any time and at any point in a system (temporary voltage variations due to fault conditions excluded). Relationship between Uo/U and Um in three- phase systems are prescribed in IEC standard 60183 and USA standard C-B4. Complete system supply It is essential that the accessories and cables are type-tested together forming a complete system, We supply a full range of accessories and fittings for splicing and terminating as well as tools and equipment, with full installation instructions. We also provide planning and supervision of the overall system packages. Standards ‘The cables described in this catalogue are standard designs, and most have a proven operational performance record. Construction and tests are in accordance with IEC publications where applicable, Conductor types The conductor sizes listed in the tables are the most commonly used types, as follows: Copper: stranded wires up to 800mm, Milliken up to 2500mm ‘Aluminium: solid up to 1200mm?, Miliken up to mm? Prysmian conductor range (in mm’) Is as follows: Copper Aluminum Sols : 240-2000 Strandes 185-1000 185-2000 Hatiien 1000-2500 1600-2500 Circular Mils In the American standards, the cross section area is expressed in Circular Mils Ac. The relation between cross sections expressed in mm? and Circular Mils is Ac A- 3735 Weights and dimensions Weights, dimensions and data characteristics are approximate and appropriate only to the products and parameter referred to in this brochure. Sheath marking Our standard embossed or surface printed outer sheath marking on round cables lists the following: ‘+ name of manufacturer + type designation, cross-sectional area of con- ductor, rated voltage and year of manufacture + continuous length marking every metre or every few feet Example: EYLKrviwd 76/132kV 1x800 2009 134mLaying information Permissible minimum bending radius of power cables during laying: + during pulling of power cables, the bending radius should not fall below the values listed in the tables + in the case of single bends (placing cables in final position), the above values may be reduced to 4 minimum of 20 x cable outer diameter (Milliken and stranded conductors) or even 15 x cable ‘outer diameter (solid conductors) During laying of power cables, particular attention must be paid to the permissible tensile force, as follows: + permissible tensile forces when using cable pulling grips: F= 2x0? in for cables with copper wire sheath F=2xD inN for cables with sheath, D represents the cable outer diameter expressed + maximum recommended tensile forces when pulling eye is attached to the conductor: Alu stranded: F =A x 30 N/mm? Alu solid = Ax 20 N/mm? Alu Milliken: F = Ax 30 N/mm? Custranded: F =A x 50 N/mm? Cu Milliken: F= Ax 80 N/mm? A represents the cross-sectional area of conductor expressed in mm? Permissible minimum cable temperature during laying: + With PVC outer sheat! + With PE outer sheath: At lower temperatures, the cables must be ade~ quately warmed up beforehand, This can be done by storing the cables in a heated room for at least, 24 hours or by using special equipment. Resistances Direct current resistance The maximum DC resistance values of conductors at 20 °C are listed in the cable standards. The DC resistance at other conductor temperatures may be calculated based on the following equation: Re Rel d,(F20 O] R= OC resistance at temperature t /km Rug = DC resistance of cond. at 20 C, W/m 1 = temperature of conductor, °C a, = temperature coeficient ofthe resistance st 20°C, °C for copper: ,, = 0.00393, for aluminium: a = 0.00403, for ead a. = 0.00400 In the previous tables are given: + Maximum DC resistance of conductors at 20 °C (in accordance with IEC60228) + Calculated DC resistance of metallic (lead) sheath at 20°C Effective resistance The effective resistance (+ alternating current re~ sistance) is made up of the DC resistance and the ‘extra resistance, which takes into account addi- tional losses caused by the current displacement in the conductor (skin effect, proximity effect) In the tables, the effective resistance given for the conductors at maximum conductor tempera ture is based on the following presumptions: + Frequency 50 Hz + Closed sheath circuit + Close trefoil formation Inductance The inductances can be calculated for the various laying configurations using the following equation: x 1s inductance, mH/en X steactance, om/km f= system frequency, Hz Operating capacitance, chargin. current and earth-faulk current’ The values for the operating capacitance of the cables are average values based on measurements and calculations, The values for the charging current are valid at a temperature of 20 °C, at a frequency of 50 Hz and at the rated voltage for the cable. The capacitance, charging current and earth-fault current values will not change when using XLPE insulated cables where the tempera~ ture rises from 20 °C to the maximum permissible continuous conductor temperature. WwDOCS east Continuous Current-carrying Capacity A separate group of three single core cables can be continuously loaded according to the tables if the presumptions below are applied. Correc- tion factors for other installations are given in Tables 1 to 7. The current-carrying capacities are calculated in accordance with the formula given in IEC Document 60287 and based on the following presumptions: Presumptions + On three-phase group of single core cables + Maximum permissible temperature of inner con- ductor in continuous use: + XLPE insulated cables ~ $0 °C + Ambient air temperature - 35 °C + Ground temperature - 25 °C + Depth of laying of cables ~ 1 m + Thermal resistivity of soil - 1.2 Km/W + Overground cables: naturally ventilated and solar radiation protected + Open sheath circuit in single core cable group: Circuit of metal sheaths, concentric conductors or metallic sheaths connected to each other and earthed at one point only = sheath bonded at single point. In addition, sheath circuit is ‘considered open when cross-bonded at equal intervals. + Closed sheath circuit in single core cable group = circuit of metal sheaths, concentric conduc- tors or metallic sheaths connected to each ‘other at both ends of the group and earthed at least at both ends = sheaths are solid bonded, XLPE-insulated cables buried directly in ground XLPE- insulated cables can be continuously loaded to a conductor temperature of $0 °C. In under- ground installations, if a cable in the ground is continuously operated at this highest rated conductor temperature, the thermal resistivity of the soil surrounding the cable may in the course of time increase from its original value as result of the drying-out processes. In consequence, the conductor temperature may greatly exceed the highest rated value with an unchanged cable load. A temporary overload conductor temperature of 105 °Cis allowable, but should be evaluated on a case-by-case basis Short-circuit current capacity When planning cable installations, care must be taken to ensure that the selected cables and fit~ tings are capable of withstanding the expected dynamic and thermal short-circuit stresses. The dynamic stresses depend on the maximum asymmetric short-circuit current, whereas the thermal stresses depend on the mean shart- circuit current. Thermal stresses In the previous tables, the maximum permissible short circuit currents for short-circuit durations of one second and the values are based on the following presumptions: * Before short circuit, the temperature of con- ductors = maximum permissible temperature of conductor in continuous use (.e.: $0 °C) + The maximum permissible temperature of a conductor in short circuit is 250 °C for XLPE Insulated cables, and 210 °C for the metallic sheath. + The permissible short circuit currents for a short-circuit duration of 0.2 to § seconds may be calculated by multiplying the value of the maximum permissible short-circuit current for a short-circuit duration of one second by the figure 1/vt, whereas tis the duration of short circuit in secondsIf site conditions are different from the standard conditions that apply for calculating the cable ratings, correction factors should be applied to the tabulated values of current ratings.
