26/35kV High Voltage SWA /STA Copper Power Cables
International Standard IEC 60502 from the International Electrotechnical Commission sets out the specification for power cables with extruded insulation with a voltage rating of 1kV to 35kV. The cable are mainly used for power distribution in power stations, industrial installation and switchgears, as well as in local mains.
26/35kV SWA/STA Copper Power Cables
1.Application
The cable is used in electric transmission and disirbution system operating at rated voltage of 0.6/1, 1.8/3, 3.6/6, 6/6, 6/10, 8.7/10. 8.7/15, 12/20, 18/30, 21/35, 26/35kV. The power cable are mainly used for power distribution in power stations, industrial installation and shafts, water and soil, able to bear the larger positive pressure, as well as in local mains. Able to bear certain traction during installation. For fixed installation underground, in interior premises, cable ducts, in the open air and in water if no risk of any mechanical damage is to be expected.
2. Structure
① Conductor: Compact stranded copper conductor, Cl.2 as per IEC 60228
② Conductor Screen: Semi-conductor
③ Insulation: XLPE (cross-linked polyethylene) rated at 90OC
④ Insulation Screen: Semi-conductor
⑤ Screen: Copper tape
⑥ Inner covering : PVC
⑦ Armoring: Steel Wire Armour or Steel Tape Aromour
⑧ Sheath: PVC or FR-PVC type ST2 to IEC 60502, black
Standard:
International: IEC 60502, IEC 60228
China: GB/T 12706
Other standards such as BS, DIN and ICEA upon request
Some cables meeting the requirements of IEC 60502 benefit from armoured layers, making them able to withstand a higher degree of mechanical stress than comparative sized unarmoured cables. Various types of armour are specified, such as concentric copper wire screens and/or helically wound copper tape as required in the N2XCH cable.
