SUMMARY This paper provides a deep insight into fault location on long Submarine Power Cables. Several field results on submarine power cable faults are provided. For land cables the main focus is on the electrical and thermal design of cable insulation and on the electro-thermal and thermo-mechanical design of cable accessories, in order to grant sufficient endurance performances and reliabili...

Partial discharge within the dielectric of HV solid dielectric power cable greatly shortens the cable life. It is desirable to detect and locate the PD in the cable before breakdown occurs. Understanding the phenomena of propagation of the PD pulse in a power cable is fundamental to the detection and location of PDs. In this paper a power cable model represented by a coaxial transmission lossle...

The electrical power used by computing and networking devices is most often taken for granted; we just assume that the power is working properly, and we don't really care how it works. There is, however, a large class of low power network appliances and devices for which it is either too expensive or too awkward to physically hook up power in the conventional way. Still other remote devices are...

A parametric macro model for a single and dual conductor power cable for transient thermo-electrical coupled simulation in PSPICE will be derived. The articledepicts the modelling of a simplified, singleand dual conductor cable and its use during simulation. Its verification against experiment and finite element simulation shows a good agreement. The derived singleand dual conductor PSPICE cabl...

Power cable is widely used in Extra High Voltage (EHV), High Voltage (HV) transmission, Medium Voltage (MV) sub-transmission, and MV / Low Voltage (LV) distribution applications. Basically, the protection principles used for cable are similar with the ones for overhead transmission line. However, the inherent characteristics of cables make its fault behavior more complicate than that of transmi...

A new prosthetic add-on device is being developed which promises to provide an economical means of adding power assist to a patient's existing conventional cable-operated prosthesis. Only minor modifications by a prosthetist would be required. Patients wearing conventional cable-operated above-elbow prostheses, who lack adequate function because they cannot generate the necessary cable excursio...

High Tc superconducting (HTS) cables and their application to develop a DC power transmission system with substantial advantages have been studied. Technical analysis of the HTS DC electrical power transmission system behaviours have been carried out with the HTS DC cable technology employed and the system models built. Index Terms -High Temperature Superconductor (HTS), HTS Cable, DC Transmiss...
