Emergency rating
CYMCAP/RTTR provides the following information
useful to the cable operator:
Computational Procedures
When there are available real-time measurements of both the temperature at the cable surface and the current,
CYMCAP/RTTR uses the IEC Standards 60853 to conveniently compute the temperature of the core conductor.
When only the temperature at the location of the fiber is available, the temperature of the core can be estimated
from the IEC Standards 60287.
Transient Calculations
Cable operating temperature very much depends on
the load shape applied to the cable. In other words,
the temperature of a cable depends on the intensity of
the current and its time variations. Therefore, cables
have different ratings, i.e. steady state, cyclic,
emergency and short circuit. Since cables installations
have thermal inertia, it takes time to heat up the cable
and its surroundings. A typical response to a step
overload of 100% lasting 12 hours is shown in the
figure below. One can appreciate that the temperature
of the cable follows in an exponential way the changes
in current.
