Medium Voltage Cable

STRUCTURE:

XLPE insulated (with minimal dielectric loss) medium voltage cables with multi-strand copper conductor (three-core); special internal and external semiconductor layers homogenizing electrical fields; copper shield specially added in appropriate section against high short circuit currents; galvanized flat steel wire sheath; galvanized steel holder strap; and external sheath.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS:

These cables are manufactured in accordance with T5EK 161381 and based on IEC 60502-2.

- Allowable operation temperature: 90 oC
- Allowable Short circuit temperature: 250 oC
(For short circuit duration t~5 sec.)
- Test voltage (AC): 50 kV
- Minimum Installation Temperature:5 oC

APPLICATIONS OF USE:

These cables, which have relatively low electrical losses in comparison with their counterparts, are used externally or underground for powering residential and industrial areas where short circuit currents are large and in the networks where increases in load are expected. They can be used in salt or fresh as long as they are manufactured in a special way.
