Long-life Xlpe Insulated Power Cable
نویسنده
چکیده
Crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) has become the globally preferred insulation for power cables, both for distribution and transmission system applications. This insulation system provides cost efficiency in operation and procurement, as well as lower environmental and maintenance requirements when compared to older impregnated paper systems. The purpose of this paper is to outline some of the developments that have led to this position. Understanding these developments will assist utilities to continue sourcing, and installing, the reliable underground assets that they require for the future.

The aging of insulating materials can be estimated by an electrical breakdown occurring in electrical components so that the relationship between lifetime, failure probability and reliability of electrical components may be studied using the life models in high voltage cables networks. In last decades with attention to higher features as electrical, thermal, mechanical characteristic, widely cr...
متن کاملCalculation of earthing and screening effects of compensation conductor laid alongside underground multi-cable power lines
Power substations in an urban area are interconnected by high voltage underground power cables, resulting also in interconnections of their earthing grids through cable metallic screens/sheaths. Most modern power cables with XLPE insulated core have metallic screens which are practically insulated from ground. These screens can only be (and usually are) grounded at cable ends and therefore do n...
متن کاملCable Diagnostics with On-voltage Time Domain Reflectometry
In this paper a diagnostics technique is presented for localization of degraded regions along an XLPE insulated power cable. The diagnostics would help to develop a strategy for condition based maintenance of old XLPE power cables. A design of the diagnostics system and results of measurements performed on two power cables are presented. The measurements data is processed in order to localize t...
متن کاملOn-line time domain reflectometry diagnostics of medium voltage XLPE power cables
Degradation of XLPE insulated power cables by water-trees is a primary cause of failure of these cables. The detection of water-trees and information about the severity of the degradation can be obtained with off-line measurement using dielectric spectroscopy. In many situations only a limited part of the cable may be degraded by the water-trees. In such a situation a method for localization of...
متن کاملOn-line Partial Discharge Monitor System of XLPE Power Cable Based on Virtual Instrument
High voltage XLPE power cable is a very important part of power system. The degree of electric-tree aging in the cable can be estimated effectually by measuring partial discharge. An on-line partial discharge monitor system of XLPE power cable was developed based on the virtual instrument designing conception. This system has the advantage of wide analog bandwidth, excellent anti-interference a...
