Eland Product Group: A9M

Application: Cable used to distribute three phase a.c. electrical power supplies at nominal system voltages of 33kV to traction substations on D.C. electrified lines.

Standards: NR/PS/ELP/00008 (formerly RT/E/PS/00008) BS6622, BS6234, BS7454, IEC 60502-2, IEC 60840

Conductor:
185mm²: Class 1 circular solid aluminium to BS EN 60228:2005 (previously BS6360)
300mm²: Class 2 compact circular stranded plain copper to BS EN 60228:2005 (previously BS6360)

Conductor Screen: Extruded semi-conducting XLPE (Cross-Linked Polyethylene), solidly bonded

Insulation: XLPE (Cross-Linked Polyethylene)

Insulation Screen : Extruded semi-conducting XLPE (Cross-Linked Polyethylene), solidly bonded, strippable

Bedding Tape: Water swellable semi-conducting tape

Screen: Copper wire screen, helically wound with equalising copper tape

Separator: Water swellable tape

Sheath: Graphite coated MDPE (Medium Density Polyethylene) type TS2

Sheath Colour: Black

Voltage Rating: 19000/33000V

Temperature Rating: +90˚C

Minimum Bending Radius: 15 x overall diameter (12 x overall diameter adjacent to joints or terminations provided that bending is carefully controlled by use of former)

Spike Test: Eland Cables performed a Spike Test on samples of 33kV cable to prove that the screen of the cable can withstand a full specified fault current for a period of no less than 3 seconds. It simulates the accidental “spiking” of a live cable installation and ensures that the circuit protection will operate and the circuit fails to safety.
