Single Core Cables To IEC 60502

Single Core Medium Cable to IEC 60502-2 Application: The single core cables are designed for distribution of electrical power with nominal voltage Uo/U ranging from 1.8/3KV to 26/35KV and frequency 50Hz. They are suitable for installation mostly in power supply stations,Website:, indoors and in cable ducts, outdoors, underground and in water as well as for installation on cable trays for industries, switchboards and power stations. Standards: IEC 60502 Part 1(1.8/3KV)IEC 60502 Part 2(3.6/6KV to 18/30KV Conductor: Plain annealed copper or aluminium complying with IEC 60228/BS 6360. Copper conductors shall be stranded (class 2) and aluminium conductors shall be either solid or stranded (class 2). Conductor Screen: The conductor screen consists of an extruded layer of non metallic, semi-conducting compound firmly bonded to the insulation to exclude all air voids. The conductor screen is not necessary for both PVC and EPR/HEPR insulated 1.8/3KV and 3.6/6KV cables. Insulation: Insulation is of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) intended for 1.8/3KV and 3.6/6KV cables, cross-linked polyethylene compound (XLPE) or ethylene propylene rubber (EPR/HEPR). Table 1.

Insulaton Screen: The insulation screen consists of an extruded layer of non metallic, semi- conducting compound extruded over the insulation. The extruded semi-conducting layer shall consist of bonded or cold strippable semi-conducting compound capable of removal for jointing or terminating. As an option, a semi-conducting tape may be applied over the extruded semi-conducting layer as a bedding for the metallic layer. The minimum thickness is 0.3 mm and the maximum resistivity is 500 Ohm-m at 90°C. The screen is tightly fitted to the insulation to exclude all air voids and can be easily hand stripped on site. The insulation screen is not necessary for both PVC and EPR/HEPR insulated 1.8/3KV and 3.6/6KV cables. The screen may be covered by semi-conductive water blocking swellable tape to ensure longitudinal watertightness.Metallic Layer: The metallic layer may be applied over the individual cores or the core assembly collectively.The following types of metallic layers are provided:1) Metallic Screen2) Concentric Conductor3) Metallic Sheath4) Metallic armourThe metallic screen shall consist of either copper tapes or a concentric layer of copper wires or a combination of tapes and wires to provide an earth fault current path. The concentric conductor is applied directly either over the insulation, or over the insulation screen or over an inner covering. The metallic sheath consists of lead or lead alloy applied as a tightly fitting seamless tube. The metallic armour consists of either flat wire armour, round wire armour, and double tape armour.

For cables without a lead sheath, the nominal separation sheath thickness shall not be less than 1.2mm. For cables where the separation sheath is applied over the lead sheath, the nominal separation sheath thickness shall not be less than 1.0mm.Lapped Bedding (for armoured lead sheathed cable): The lapped bedding consists of either impregnated/synthetic compounded paper tapes or a combination of two layers of these paper tapes followed by a few layers of compounded fabulous materials. The thickness is around 1.5mm.Armour (for armoured cable): The armour consists of round aluminium wire armour applied helically over an extruded separation sheath.Table 3. Round Armour Wire Diameter  Fictitious Diameter Under the Armour Armour Wire Diameter mm mm > << p="">< - 10 0.8 10 15 1.25 15 25 1.6 25 35 2.0 35 60 2.5 60 - 3.15 Over Sheath: Overall sheath comprises a layer of extruded thermoplastic compound (PVC, PE or LSZH can be offered as an option.) or elastomeric compound (polychlorprene CSP or chlorosulfonated PE). The nominal oversheath thickness is calculated by 0.035D+1 where D is the fictitiuous diameter immediately under the oversheath in mm. For unarmoured cables and cables with the oversheath not applied over the armour, metallic screen or concentric conductor, the nominal oversheath thickness shall not be less than 1.4mm. And for cables with oversheath applied over the armour, metallic screen or concentric conductor, the nominal oversheath thickness shall not be less than 1.8mm.PHYSICAL PROPERTIES:Operating Temperature: up to 70°C (PVC insulation); up to 90°C (XLPE or EPR insulation)Temperature Range: -5°C ( PVC sheath ); -20°C ( PE sheath )Short Circuit Temperature( 5 seconds maximum duration ): 140-160°C (PVC insulation);250°C (XLPE or EPR insulation)Bending Radius: 12 x ODTable 4. Nominal /Operating /Testing Voltages Rated Voltage Uo/U Operating Voltage (Um) Testing Voltage (rms) 1.8/3KV 3.6KV 6.5KV 3.6/6KV 7.2KV 12.5KV 6/10KV 12KV 21KV 8.7/15KV 17.5KV 30.5KV 12/20KV 24KV 42KV 18/30KV 36KV 63KV 21/35KV 42KV 73.5(53)*KV 26/35KV 42KV 91(65)*KV *21/35KV and 26/35kV power frequency voltage test can be made under the following conditions: 2.5Uo x 30mins or 3.0Uo x 15mins.
