Power Cables – General
Application Cables intended for the transmission and distribution of electrical energy are mainly used in power plants, in distribution systems and substations of power supply utilities, and in industry.
Laying in the ground
Standard cables are suitable for most applications. They are preferably used where overhead lines are not suitable, e.g. in densely builtup areas, in cities (pedestrian zones), industrial installations and buildings. For power supply cables there are two main fields of application with different stresses (Fig. 1):
Installation in air
Directly in the ground
Outdoors
In ducts
Indoors
In concrete
In channels
The instructions AR 320-220 and AR 320-1220 contain detailed information on the application of cables, e.g. permissible pulling forces, limit temperatures, bending radii, cable fixing, storage and transport, etc.
Rated voltage – Power cables are classified according to the rated voltages U 0 / U and U m. – U m is the maximum rms value between phase conductors. – U 0 is the rms value between conductor and ground or grounded metallic covering (concentric conductor, screen, armour, metal sheath). U 0 = U / 3 – U is the rms value between phase conductors. – For application in three-phase and single-phase systems the main standard rated voltages in compliance with IEC 183 are given in Fig. 4. The maximum continuous operating-voltage at normal operation for low voltage cables with rated voltage of 0.6/1kV (U m = 1.2 kV) is

For these cables, especially for the insulation (electrical strength) of buried cables, reliability and a long service life is required. The power cables from Pirelli Kabel und Systeme have proven this by an excellent service experience over decades.
In view of the possible external stresses for power cables, standard cables are suitable for most applications for laying in the ground (distribution cables) or for installation in air (installation cables) (Fig. 3).

Power Cables – General
Current ratings For safe project planning of cable installations, the cross-sectional area of conductor shall be determined such that the requirement current-carrying capacity
Laying in the ground Mechanical
I z ≥ loading I b
is fulfilled for all operating conditions which can occur. A distinction is made between the current-carrying capacity for normal operation and for short-circuit (operation under fault conditions) Especially in low-voltage systems, the cross-sectional area of the conductor must be additionally determined in respect of the permitted voltage drop ∆U. In order to avoid thermal overloading of the cable a suitable protective device also has to be selected. Besides that, the relevant installation rules shall be observed.
With regard to these criteria, brief instructions for project planning are given in Part 2 of the book “Power Cables and their Application”. They are sufficient for most cases when using the values listed in this book. The procedure is shown by examples. More comprehensive calculation methods with detailed project planning data can be taken from Part 1 of the book “Power Cables and their Application”. Order-Nr.: Part 1: A19100-L531-F159-X-7600 Part 2: A19100-L531-F506-X-7600. For high-voltage cables, the current-carrying capacity is to be examined for each special case of application. It depends on a lot of special laying and installation conditions so that it is not possible to give standard values. Standards All types of Pirelli cables are based on national and international standards such as DIN VDE and IEC. A perfect quality system according to ISO 9001 ensures a maximum of reliability of Pirelli cables.

Power Cables – General
Constructional elements of cables Conductors The conductors comply with IEC 228. The type and construction of conductor – whether circular solid (RE) or circular stranded (RM), sector-shaped solid (SE) or sector-shaped stranded (SM) – can be taken from the relevant tables in the book “Power Cables and their Application”, Part 2. The smallest permissible nominal cross-sectional areas for circular and sector-shaped conductors are specified in the relevant standard. Especially for high-voltage low-pressure oil-filled cables, circular stranded hollow conductors (RM...H) are used. For crosssectional areas of 1000 mm 2 and above, special segmental conductors, also known as Milliken conductors, are used in order to reduce current losses occurring due to skin and proximity effects. Insulation In the field of cables with extruded insulation, there are three dominating insulation materials which have proved to be reliable: PVC for low voltage, EPR up to app. 150 kV and XLPE up to the highest voltage. XLPE for PROTOTHEN X cables has a high-grade insulating compound of polyethylene with a cross-linked structure which shows excellent properties. Cables above 30 kV up to 500 kV are designed with superclean insulation material because of the very low loss factor at all operating temperatures. The permittivity is also relatively low to limit capacitive power. The conductor shield and insulation shield of XLPE-cables are extruded together with the insulation (triple extrusion) in special manufacturing processes. So the insulation screen is generally solidly bonded to the insulation. To remove this insulation screen during installation of accessories, a special cutting tool is required. Designs with easy-strip semiconductive layers are also avail able for medium-voltage cables. PVC is mainly used for cables designed for voltages from 1 kV up to and including 6 kV. Pirelli PROTODUR cables have an insulation based on that material. Compared to XLPE, these cables have a significantly higher permittivity.

Oil-impregnated paper, a classic insulation material, is still used especially for extrahigh-voltage low-pressure oil-filled cables. The advantages of this type of insulation are the vast experience that stands behind it and the high degree of reliability so impressively demonstrated by the fault-free service of these cables decade after decade. Identification of cores for low-voltage cables Cables with more than 5 cores (control cables) have black cores with white imprinted numbers. The green-yellow core is to be used solely as a PE (protective earth) or PEN (protective earth and neutral) conductor. The blue core is provided for use as a neutral conductor.
The blue core may be used as a phase conductor if the cable has a concentric conductor or if a neutral conductor is not required. Concentric conductors, screens, armor and metal sheaths

Fig. 5: Nominal cross sectional area of phase conductor For high-voltage cables a lead sheath is normally used for low-pressure oil-filled cables, but it is also available for cables with XLPE insulation. For high-voltage PROTOTHEN X cables up to 150 kV, however, normally a screen of round copper wires with a cross-sectional area of 35 mm2 or 50 mm2 is used together with an aluminum laminated PE sheath.
Low-voltage cables may be provided with concentric conductors as protection from contact if there is a possibility of the cables being exposed to mechanical damage. Concentric conductors are made of copper. The data on the cross-sectional area in the type designation code always refer to the material of the phase conductors.
For all types of insulation used for highvoltage cables, a corrugated Al-sheath is available. The advantage of such a cable is the high mechanical rigidity and, under fault conditions, the high short circuit currentcarrying capacity.
For cables with concentric conductors in distribution systems, the wires of the concentric conductors are laid in waveform (CEANDER conductor) on the inner covering. These conductors facilitate the installation of the branch joints because the concentric conductor can easily be lifted up and bundled at one side. It also ensures that there is sufficient space for connecting branches to the underlying phase conductors without having to cut the CEANDER conductor.
For low-voltage PROTODUR cables with PVC insulation and PROTOTHEN X cables with XLPE insulation, a PVC sheath is normally applied.
Screens are compulsory for all cable types above 0.6/1 kV. Screens shall consist of copper. Multicore cables may have individual screened cores or a common screen. In multi-core cables a steel wire armor may also be used as a common screen. The screens which are always grounded ensure protection from contact and carry the short circuit and earth fault currents. According to DIN VDE 0276-620 the nominal crosssectional area of the screens (geometrical cross-sectional area) must not fall below the values in the following table (Fig. 5). To protect the insulation of PROTODUR or PROTOTHEN X cables against permanent, intensive ingress of fuels, oils or solvents, a lead sheath can be provided under the PVC sheath or PE-sheath.
Outer coverings
Medium-voltage XLPE-insulated cables normally have a sheath of polyethylene which is more resistant with respect to the mechanical stresses. PVC sheaths can also be provided, especially for underground mining or indoor installation (flame retardance according to IEC 60 332-2). As already mentioned, high-voltage cables having a screen of round copper wires are provided with an aluminum laminated PE sheath consisting of an aluminum tape coated with PE copolymer on the outer side and bonded to a black PE sheath. All other high-voltage cable types are usually also combined with a PE sheath because of its high mechanical stability. Only if there are requirements for flame retardance according to IEC 60 332-2 a PVC sheath should be applied instead of or in addition to the commonly used PE sheath.

High- and Extra-High-Voltage Cables up to 290/500 kV and Accessories Information on high-voltage cables and accessories is available from Pirelli PKS BU EV. High-voltage cables are laid and installed by Siemens on a contractual basis. This covers all tasks from route planning up to the final voltage test to be carried out. The cables and accessories shown on the following pages are designed for all kinds of high-voltage transmission of electrical energy. The main requirements for these applications are as follows: Low loss factor tan delta: This is for low dielectric losses to minimize heating. Thermal stability of insulation: This is for a uniform loss factor at all load fluctuations and overvoltages occurring in operation. Electrical stability of insulation: This is for freedom from partial discharge through effective prevention of ionization in voids. All these main requirements are fulfilled by XLPE-insulated PROTOTHEN X cables and low-pressure oil-filled cables, together with Pirelli accessories for high-voltage cables shown in Fig. 33 to 36 by examples to demonstrate their typical constructional elements.
Cables with improved fire behaviour SIENOPYR cables have the following excellent characteristics:
Fig. 6: Installation of low- and medium-voltage cables in an industrial area
Reduced fire propagation performance: Even in the case of large grouping and vertical installation of cables, the spread of fire by cables is prevented (tests according to IEC 60 332-3). Corrosivity: No subsequential fire damage because the materials of these cables are halogenfree and the gas emission is non-corrosive (tests according to IEC 60 754-2). Low smoke density: Fire-fighting and rescue operations are decisively facilitated (tests according to IEC 61 034).
