It may be wed as a self-standing document by offshore Operators, rie owners, design contractors and equipment builders. Altematively, it may form the basis of user standards in part or whole. Tn 1987, a cable standardization working group was drawn from representatives of UKOOA, .the British Rig Owners Association (BROA) and the Intemational Association of Drilling Contractors (North Sea Chapter) (ADC). The remit was to define a small, logical series of cables which would mect the needs of modern instrumentation equipment and installation practice, whilst boing efficient to manufacture. Historically, users were found to have in-house standards with little in common, even varying widely from one installation or. projeét to another. Many thousands of different cable gore and make-up combinations resulted, not considering the further complications of gheath materials and colour variants, A further UKOOA working group has agreed standards for high and low voltage power cables which have been incorporated into the enlarged second revision of this Guidance. Strict adherence by users to these Guidelines will enable cable manufacturers and stockists to concentrate on providing acceptable cables ‘off the shelf to service the offshore industry. Cable types have been categorized into four basic combinations according to materials of construction, based on their fire performance. It is recognized that development of improved insulation materials should not be restricted by standards. Although certain materials are suggested, equivalent or superior materials may be agteed between Purchaser and Supplicr. Instrumentation may be installed on vibrating machinery, periodically dismounted for calibration and maintenance, whilst miniaturization increasingly, results in restricted termination space. Consequently, for the smaller cored cables (up to 1.5mm?) the use of flcxible stranded conductors to BS 6360 Class 5 has been selected throughout. This is an important departure from historic practice and has also been recognized in BS 6883:1991. ‘With weight and cost saving a consideration, reductions in core size of instrumentation cables were agreed. Standardized construction arrangements for screens and lay-up of cores were evolved in association with representatives of the British Cable Makers! Confederation, these now being shown in BS 6883:1991 as preferred types, ‘To ease manufacture and further reduce size, quads have replaced to 2-pair cables. Whilst every effort has been taken to ensure the accuracy of these Guidelines, UKOOA cannot accept responsibility for any errors or omissions. Duty holders and designers should ensure that in selecting and using the standards set out in these Guidelines that they are suitable for their intended service. Guidelines for instrumentation, power and control cables for fixed and mobile protic ea UKOOA ed2. Scope These Guidelines cover the requirements for the design, manufacture, inspection and | testing of elastomeric instrumentation, power and contro! cables “for offshore installations. It is not intended to define how or where cable types should be applied | and itis the responsibility of users to cnsure that cables are fit for purpose. These Guidelines are complomentary to BS 6883:1991 which covers the general and detailed construction of elastomeric cables. A sub-sot of the innumerable option combinations is defined to enable standardization on a coherent family of cables which will satisfy the majority of instrumentation, power, telecommunications and control applications. ‘Although not covered by BS 6883, these Guidelines incorporate information on data cable for use in computer networks and data highways such as Ethernet.

Guidelines for instrumentation, power and control cables for fixed and mobile ele i UKOOA& Cable Construction & Selection 81 General B.LL Sample specification sheets are provided in Annex C to assist manufacturers, stockists and users to select cables for various applications. The insulation, bedding and sheathing materials may be substituted by other equivalent compounds which comply with the specifications. The sheets detail only the general construction of cables: manufacturing methods may dictate the addition or omission of proof or PETP tapes, for example. 8.1.2 Four basic fire performance types are subdivided by voltage rating into cable specification sheets for the following typical applications: (a) intrinsically safe (18) instrumentation (b) non-IS instrumentation (6) LV power and control @ HV power (e) other special applications High voltage cables are only listed as standard types in flame retardant, reduced halogen construction. Other variants are not covered by this guidance, being regarded as non-preferred, reflecting the greatest usage pattern. 8.1.3 Apart from the sheath and bedding colour being blue rather than grey, IS cable types ‘are identical to their non-IS counterparts. Some’ users may elect to standardize on grey sheath cables alone. Note that the large core, unscreened multicore (UKOOA Type ©) cables are not normally applicable to 1S circuits and hence no blue sheath variants are recommended. 82 — Cableselection 8.2.1 Cable make-up combinations should be strictly limited to those shown in Avanex A, Tables 1-5. 8.2.2 _It-will be noted that cables such as 2-pair screened ate not inchided as standard types. Reference to Annex A, Table 7 suggests use of 1-quad, this being more compact and easier to manufacture. Where individual screening is essential, 3~ paif cable may be selected. 8.2.3. For general instrumentation applications, overall screened, paired cables (UKOOA Type P) provide adequate noise rejection for use in most switch circuits and analogue loops. i 8.2.4 For high frequency, very small signal and other special applications, individually screened (UKOOA Type PS, TS, QS) cables should be considered. 8.2.5 It is suggested that unscreened multicores (UKOOA ‘Type C) only be applied to instrumentation service where their high current or voltage grade is a requirement. Such applications would typically include switchgear control circuits and high power, non-IS instrumentation. 8.2.6 A range of single core, unarmoured cables is intended for use as carthing cables (UKOOA Type E), battery Ieads and other heavy duty applications not requiring mechanical protection (UKOOA ‘Type B). Core sizes below 6 mm’ are not covered by this guidance and it is recommended that the preferred series of core sizes be adopted for standard use (see tables in Annexes A & B, unshaded items) Guidelines for instrumentation, power and control cables for fixed and mobile proto ite i UKQOA November10046 ——— oO a a a ee%3 Mire performance selection 8.3.1 Users should select fire performance types according to the individual application, Sections 8.3.2 - 8.3.5 offer gencral guidance only. 8.3.2 For most general power and instrumentation applications in ventilated areas, reduced halogen, flame retardant cables (Fire performance codes H, J, L, M, N and P per Annex B) offer adequate performance, 83.3 Where continuity of circuits is essential under fire conditions, reduced halogen, fire, resistant cables (Fire performance code F and X per Annex B) should be conisidered, Typical applications may include: (a) fire pump start circuits (b) deluge and extinguishant release (©) public address and general alam systems (d) essential telecommunications equipment (©) _power-o-opérate shutdown circuits () essential LV power supply feeders 83.4 Where cables may present a smoke or fume hazard under fire conditions, Fire performance codes G, K, W and Y may be specified to replace codes F, J, L and X respectively. Some users may elect to use these types for all applications. Some LSF materials possess lower tear strength than their reduced halogen counterparts, e.g: CSP, It is expected, however, that with developing materials technology, that performance of LSF materials will meet or exceed that of CSP. Cables with sheathing compounds possessing the properties of both BS 7655 Section 2.6 types SW2 and SW4 may be dual marked with both UKOOA Cable Codes with which they comply. Ba Termination methods 8.4.1 Flexibly stranded cores (ie: those less than 2,5mm*) which are to be terminated at clamp type terminations should be crimped using bootlade ferrules matched to the core size. These have the advantage of being secoudarily mechanically compressed by tightening the terminal screw or gate;’ the cores are thus intcinsically secure. The resulting installation is generally more compact. 8.42 Bootlace ferrules with colour-coded insulated wire enties are preferred and provide: (a) improved guidance for the core strands on assembly (b) visual recognition of correct cross-sectional area ferrule to match core size (0) support for the insulation and retention of numbering sleeves (@) additional protection ftom electric shock and shorting 8.4.3 All crimped terminations shall be made off using adequately maintained, manufacturer's recommended tooling, compatible with the size of core. ooeten ete UKOOA pteAunex A.
