High voltage power cable up to 132kV

 

Construction

Conductor: Plain circular compacted copper or aluminium conductor

Conductor screen: Extruded semiconductive compound

Insulation: Extruded superclean cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) rated 90°C

Insulation screen: Extruded semi-conductive compound. It is firmly bonded to the insulation by virtue of the simultaneous cross linking of insulation

Metallic screen: Concentric round uncoated copper wires applied helically and shall be capable of carrying the required earth-fault current.

Radial water barrier: Laminated aluminium tape applied longitudinally

Outer sheath: Extruded black PE compound

High Voltage Power Cable with Lead Sheath

The overall cable structure is similar to the 132kV power cable.

A layer of extruded lead is applied. It serves as a protection against radial moisture ingress into the cable. It also serves as an earth fault current carrying medium.

High Voltage Power Cable with Milliken Conductor

The overall cable structure is similar to the 132kV power cable.

The conductor of this cable is achieved by using a shaped segmental conductor design. Our design consists of five stranded sector shape conductor segments with one central circular conductor separated by semi-conducting tape used to avoid "Skin Effect" for an improve current carrying capacity. The conductor also features water-sealed properties which prevent moisture ingress into and along the conductor for improved cable reliability and durability.

Medium Voltage Power Cable

 

Typical Construction of a 1-core armoured cable

Conductor: Plain circular compacted copper or aluminium conductor

Conductor screen: Extruded semiconductive compound

Insulation: Extruded cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) rated 90°C

Insulation screen: Non-metallic part - extruded layer of semiconductive compound metallic part - copper tape of 0.1mm nominal thickness

Bedding: Extruded PVC or PE compound

Armour: Round hard drawn aluminium wires applied helically over the bedding

Outer sheath: Extruded PVC or PE compound

 

Typical Construction of a 3-core armoured cable

Conductor: Plain circular compacted copper or aluminium conductor

Conductor screen: Extruded semiconductive compound

Insulation: Extruded cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) rated 90°C

Insulation screen: Non-metallic part - extruded layer of semiconductive compound metallic part - copper tape of 0.1mm nominal thickness

Bedding: Extruded PVC or PE compound

Armour: Galvanized steel wire applied helically over the bedding

Outer sheath: Extruded PVC or PE compound

Low Voltage cable with PVC or XLPE insulation

 

Construction

Conductor: Plain circular compacted or sector stranded copper or aluminium conductor

Insulation: Extruded cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) rated 90°C PVC rated 70°C

Colour for core identification
Single core - Red (black on request)
Two core - Red & Black
Three core - Red, Yellow & Blue
Four core - Red, Yellow, Blue & Black

Assembly: Two, three or four insulated conductors are laid up together, if necessary filled with non-hygroscopic material compatible with the insulation. The filling may be omitted provided the outer shape of the cable remains practically circular and no adhesion occurs between cores and sheath.

Bedding: Extruded PVC or PE compound

Armour
Single core - Round hard drawn aluminium wires applied helically over the

Bedding
Multi core - Round galvanized steel wires applied helically over the bedding

Outer sheath: Extruded PVC or PE compound
