Power Cable Technology provides a precise understanding of the
design, manufacture, installation, and testing of a range of
electric power cables-from low-voltage, 1,000/1,100V cables to
extra-high-voltage, 400kV cables-with reference to future trends in
the industry. The authors' mantra is: know your cable. Thus, the
book begins with a comprehensive overview of power cable design and
manufacturing through the ages, and then: Describes the
characteristics of the materials currently used in the production
of various power cables Explains how to calculate the die orifice
for drawing wires, how tolerance in manufacturing affects material
weight and consumption, and how and why lubricants are used
Addresses the formation, stranding, and insulation of the
electrical conductors, as well as the sheathing, armouring, and
protective covering of the power cables Delivers an in-depth
discussion of quality systems, quality control, and performance
testing Covers the many nuances of cable installation, including
laying, jointing, and terminating Throughout, the authors emphasise
consonance between design theory and practical application to
ensure production of a quality power cable at a reasonable cost.
They also underscore the importance of careful handling, making
Power Cable Technology a must read for power cable engineers and
technicians alike.
