Section Four Medium Voltage TR-XLPE Cables

CONSTRUCTION
Olex Medium Voltage TR-XLPE cables are designed in accordance with AS/NZS 1429.1:2000 and specific customer
requirements where applicable to provide optimum performance for the end application.
The AS/NZS 1429.1:2000 is compatible with, and in some instances exceeds, the requirements of the international
standard IEC 60502.2. AS/NZS 1429.1 is also compatible with (UK) BS 6622 and (US) AEIC CS8 and ICEA S-93-
639/NEMA WC74.

Component Detail
Conductor
Conductors are made of either copper or aluminium to AS/NZS 1125. To assist in producing a smooth circular profile at
the interface between the conductor screen and the insulation, compacted stranded conductors are used.
Insulation and Semiconductive Screens
All Olex Medium Voltage TR-XLPE insulated cables are produced under clean room conditions, using the triple extrusion
process in which the conductor screen, insulation and insulation screen are extruded simultaneously through a single
extrusion head. The surface of the insulation is never exposed to the atmosphere or to any material other than the
adjacent semiconductive screens, ensuring that the interfaces between the materials are completely free of voids and
contamination.

Cross sectional view of a


Triple Extrusion Head

A sophisticated dimension control device uses X-Rays which are fired through the three layers of polymer to accurately
measure the individual layer thicknesses; this ensures that the dimensions of all layers are constant and concentric
through the entire length of the cable.

EX-RAY-800 Dimensional Controller

The cross-linking process is carried out in a totally water-free environment, using inert gas rather than steam as the curing
medium. This dry-cure process ensures a high integrity insulation and leads to excellent electrical performance.

CONSTRUCTION (CONT.)
Insulation and Semiconductive Screens (cont.)
The functional components of this triple layer are:
1. Conductor screen, a semiconductive cross-linked polymeric material applied over the conductor and bonded to the
insulation. This provides a smooth, circular interface between the conductor and insulation and eliminates stress
concentrations.
2. Insulation , a clean, low density, high molecular weight cross-linked polyethylene. A tree-retardant grade, which has
shown improved performance in accelerated ageing tests, is used. This leads to superior long term reliability.

XLPE
TR-XLPE cables
– more than 40 years

3. Insulation screen, a layer of semiconductive cross-linked polymeric material which adheres firmly to the insulation, yet
remains readily strippable by hand for jointing and terminating.
Metal Screen
A screen of plain annealed copper wires is helically applied over the semiconductive insulation screen, ie, over the core of
a single core cable or each core of a three core cable.
This screen acts as a return path for capacitive charging current and induced circulating currents under normal operating
conditions. The screen will also carry short circuit current in the event of an electrical fault in the circuit.
Core Assembly (Three Core Cable)
The cores are laid up and the interstices filled with a non-hygroscopic material to achieve a circular cable cross section.
The laid up core assembly is bound with helically applied non-hygroscopic tapes.
Separation Sheath and Armour (Three Core Cable)
In three core armoured cables, a separation sheath of PVC is extruded over the core assembly followed by a layer of
helically applied galvanised mild steel wires.
Outer Sheath
A sheath of PVC, or a dual sheath of PVC/HDPE, is extruded over the metal screen of a single core cable, or over the core
assembly or steel wire armour of three core cables.
Alternative protective coverings may be applied depending on the environment in which the cable is installed, eg, LLDPE,
MDPE, HDPE, Megolon.

Section Four Medium Voltage TR-XLPE Cables

SCREEN DESIGNS
The standard range of Olex Medium Voltage TR-XLPE cables rated up to and including 33 kV incorporates copper wire
screens based on fault levels of either 3 kA or 10 kA for 1 second. If either of the standard screen designs does not suit a
particular installation, the screen constructions can be tailored in size to meet the specific fault requirements of any
operating system.

Wire Screen Cross Sectional Areas


In the case of three core cables which have screens around each individual core, the total screen cross sectional area is
spread evenly over the three cores.
There are several other factors which can override the above criteria. Firstly, the screens are designed so that the average
gap between the wires does not exceed 4 mm. This results in the screen area being increased above that required for the
required fault level in certain cases. Secondly, the screen area is limited to a value so that its fault rating does not exceed
that of the conductor. In some cases, the smaller cables in a range have fault levels of less than either 3 kA or 10 kA for 1
second respectively.

Screen Short Circuit Ratings


The screen short circuit ratings are calculated in accordance with formulae given in IEC 60949. Based on AS/NZS 1429.1
a starting temperature of 80°C and a final temperature of 250°C are used. The formulae are based on adiabatic conditions
ie, no dissipation of heat during the short circuit.
The fault rating Isc of a copper wire screen of a given cross sectional area can be calculated for any duration from the
formula :
148.6 * S
Isc = (A)
t
2
where S = Screen Area (mm ) and t = Fault Duration (s).
Conversely, the screen area required for a given fault rating can be calculated as follows:
Isc * t
S= ( mm2)
148.6
For convenience, fault ratings for durations of 1 second are often quoted and this simplifies calculations since t = 1 and
this term disappears from the formulae.

TESTING
Testing of Olex Medium Voltage TR-XLPE cables is carried out in accordance with AS/NZS 1429.1:2000. The tests
performed are :
Routine tests* - "tests made by the manufacturer on all completed cable to demonstrate the integrity of the cable."
Sample tests* - "tests made by the manufacturer on samples of completed cable, or components taken from a completed
cable, at a specified frequency so as to verify that the finished product meets the design specification."
Type tests# - "tests made by a manufacturer before supplying commercially a type of cable in order to demonstrate
satisfactory performance characteristics to meet the intended application. These tests are of such a nature that, after they
have been made, they need not be repeated unless changes are made in the cable materials, design, or method of
manufacture, which might change the performance characteristics."

* All routine and sample tests are performed in the factory.


# Type tests are carried out in Olex's plant in Tottenham, Melbourne, which includes a separate laboratory dedicated to
EHV cable testing. The extensive facilities include high voltage test equipment which can perform partial discharge
measurements at voltages up to 300 kV, high voltage break-down tests to 600 kV, cyclic ageing tests and impulse
withstand tests. The impulse test generator has been specifically built for cable and accessory testing and is the largest in
the southern hemisphere, capable of impulses up to 1.2 MV. This allows all type tests to AS/NZS and other national
standards to be performed.

INSTALLATION TESTS
General
After the cable has been installed and prior to commencing terminating or jointing, it is desirable to carry out checks to
establish that the cable has not been damaged during the installation process, namely a Sheath Integrity Test and an
Insulation Resistance Test of Primary Insulation
After completion of the tests, if the terminating or jointing is not being commenced straight away, the cable ends should be
resealed with heat shrinkable end caps or similar to prevent the ingress of moisture.

Olex New Zealand Limited Recommendations for Tests After


Complete Installation of TR-XLPE Medium Voltage Cables
Advice Concerning Tests After Installation
If a test is carried out after installation, please note that the test is to detect defects caused during installation. After
installation, the test is applied to the cable and accessories.
High Voltage D.C. Test After Installation
The D.C. testing of the primary insulation is not recommended. There are two important reasons for not using a High
Voltage DC Test.
1. The DC field in the cable and accessories applies different electric stresses (both in magnitude and in physical location)
to an AC field, so much so, that it is considered to be a poor process to find faults.
2. The application of High Voltage DC leads to premature failure of aged and “wet” primary insulation. This has been
proven in the Laboratory and has been proven repeatedly in the field.
Safety Requirements
As the voltages used in these tests are potentially lethal, appropriate safety measures must be employed to ensure that the
safety of all people involved in the testing process is not compromised.
Cable ends to be isolated shall be disconnected from the supply and protected from contact to supply, or ground, or
accidental contact. Safety measures shall include, and shall not necessarily be limited to, earthing of cable under test prior
to and after test voltages are applied, erection of safety barriers with warning signs, and an open communication channel
between testing personnel.
The testing guidelines outlined in this document are Olex New Zealand Limited’s recommendations only, and Olex New
Zealand Limited cannot be held responsible for ensuring the safe implementation of these recommendations.
Sheath Integrity Test
A sheath integrity test (eg, 1000 V minimum insulation resistance tester) applied between the outer-most metallic layer and
earth can identify after-installation damage to the non-metallic outer sheath.
The measured value should be read after application of the voltage for 1 minute. Ideally the measured value should be
corrected for temperature to a standard value at 20°C if correction factors are available. A rough guide is that the
insulation resistance decreases to one half of the value for a 10°C rise in temperature. The cable temperature should be
recorded along with the measured values.
Measured values of Insulation Resistance for the sheath should be greater than calculated values. Calculated values for
new cable range from 1.5 MΩ/km to 4.0 MΩ/km @ 20°C for PVC sheaths and from 120 MΩ/km to 300 MΩ/km @ 20°C
for PE sheaths. Values are highest for small cables and thick sheaths and lowest for large cables and thin sheaths (factory
tests show that measured values are up to an order of magnitude greater than the calculated values).
Earth the screens after an Insulation Resistance Test on a sheath for at least 5 minutes before handling or performing
other tests.

INSTALLATION TESTS (CONT.)


Insulation Resistance Test of Primary Insulation
DC voltages up to 5 kV, used when performing Insulation Resistance Tests on Primary Insulation, are not considered to be
a “High voltage DC test”.
An Insulation Resistance Test of the Primary Insulation should be carried out with an insulation resistance tester, with a
minimum DC voltage of 2.5 kV for 1.9/3.3 kV cables or 5 kV for cables above 1.9/3.3 kV and up to 19/33 kV. The insulation
test should be carried out in the “Guarded Mode” and the instrument should have a minimum full-scale range of 500
Gohms. Guarding should be applied at both ends and a spare core used for the connection lead to the guard at the far
end. Any conductor or cable core used as a guard lead must have a resistance to ground of greater than 10 kohms. The
measured value should be read after application of the voltage for 1 minute. Ideally the measured value should be
corrected for temperature to a standard value at 20°C if correction factors are available. A rough guide is that the
insulation resistance decreases to one half of the value for a 10°C rise in temperature. The cable temperature should be
recorded along with the measured values.
Measured values of insulation resistance for the primary insulation should be greater than calculated values. Calculated
values for new cable range from 2,400 MΩ/km to 18,000 MΩ/km at 20°C. Values are highest for small conductors and
higher voltages and lowest for large conductors and lower voltages (factory tests show that measured values are up to an
order of magnitude greater than the calculated values).
This test should be performed prior to any high voltage tests. Short the conductors to the screens after an Insulation
Resistance Test on Primary Insulation for at least 10 minutes before handling or performing other tests.
If the instrument used for the above insulation resistance testing is a “Megger,” Type BM 25, or equivalent, then the two
following tests should be considered.
1. A 10 minute Polarisation Index Test - this test is commonly used as a replacement for the standard insulation resistance
test.
2. A 5 Minute Step Voltage Test - the test should use five equal steps up to the maximum test voltage of 2.5 kV for 1.9/3.3
kV cables or 5 kV for cables greater than 1.9/3.3 kV up to 19/33 kV. This test is becoming increasingly used on cables of
6.35/11 kV and greater.
Both the above tests can be carried out automatically with the Megger, BM 25 unit and guarding should be applied at both
ends as above.
High Voltage A.C. Test After Installation
An A.C. voltage test at power frequency should be applied for 24 hours with the normal operating voltage of the system to
the primary insulation.
Some customers have objected to a 24 hour test at only the operating voltage of the cable and would prefer a test using a
higher voltage for a shorter time. This can be achieved by a Very Low Frequency (VLF) HV AC Test, and the equipment now
exists for hire in New Zealand to perform this. The VLF HV AC Test is becoming recognised throughout the world as a
replacement test for the old HV DC Test or the 24 hour AC test at normal operating voltage, although not many standards
have details in them at this point in time. VLF Tests are carried out at a frequency in the band of 0.1 to 0.02 Hz. The VLF
Test Set must be of adequate power to test the measured cable capacitance at the frequency chosen. The suggested
maximum VLF test voltage for new cable is between 2.7 and 3.0 times the cable operating voltage (Uo), for a minimum of 15
minutes. Where possible, a 30 minute testing time is now recommended as international research has shown this to give a
higher confidence. Refer to the test procedure of IEEE-400-2.
For existing or aged cables being recommissioned after repair or alterations, the VLF Test Voltage should be a maximum of
2.3 times the cable operating voltage (Uo), for 15 minutes.
Documentation
The values obtained in the above tests should be recorded in a cable log so that they are available for comparison
purposes in the future.

DISTRIBUTED TEMPERATURE MONITORING


SYSTEM
Introduction
A Distributed Temperature Sensor (DTS) is a temperature monitoring device which uses an optical fibre that is either a part
of, or strapped to, an existing cable as a probe. The fibre can be attached to a portable DTS to obtain a temperature profile
of the circuit at all points along its route. This profile, in conjunction with the circuit load data, can then be used to confirm
and/or determine a circuit’s maximum rating. Another benefit of the DTS is to locate and identify regions where the cable
may be running at a warmer than average temperature due to the effects of other services in the immediate vicinity or
higher soil thermal resistivity.
DTS technology always involves a trade-off between response time, spatial resolution, sampling interval and length of the
fibre sensor.

optical fibre strapped to the outside of a
power cable

Principles of Operation
The DTS technology is based on Optical Time Domain Reflectometry (OTDR) technology whereby a laser pulse is
transmitted down a length of fibre. As the pulse travels down the length of the fibre a certain amount of light is reflected
back towards the DTS instrument. This reflected signal or backscatter signal is then sampled and analysed by the DTS
software to provide a temperature profile or trace of the fibre that is being probed. The trace can be displayed on a real
time basis on an attached computer and/or recorded for future analysis in the DTS hard drive. Data stored in the DTS hard
drive can be retrieved and then sorted into a Microsoft Excel style format for a more detailed analysis of the temperature.

CURRENT RATINGS
The continuous current ratings given in this publication have been calculated in accordance with the International
Electrotechnical Commission Publication No. IEC 60287 - "Calculation of the Continuous Current Rating of Cables (100%
Load factor)", based on the following environmental conditions: Ambient Air Temperature, 30°C; Ambient Soil
Temperature, 15°C; Soil Thermal Resistivity, 1.2 K.m/W; Depth of burial, 1.0 m; and Screens bonded both ends.
In all cases, the ratings given are the single circuit ratings corresponding to continuous loading at the maximum conductor
temperature of 90°C. Where the conditions vary from those on which the ratings are based, rating factors from Tables 4.1
to 4.4 (Section 4 Medium Voltage TR-XLPE Cables) need to be applied.

Methods of Installation
The methods of installation for which the ratings are applicable are shown graphically in Figure 2.1 (Section 2 General
Technical Information).

Groups of Circuits
For groups of circuits unenclosed in air, the spacings and arrangements which need to be maintained to prevent derating
are given in Figure 2.2 (Section 2 General Technical Information).
Where a number of circuits are installed in close proximity in such a way that they are not thermally independent, the
appropriate rating factors from Tables 4.5, 4.6, (Section 4 Medium Voltage TR-XLPE Cables) and 2.1, 2.2 (Section 2
General Technical Information) need to be applied.

Cables in Parallel
For cables operated in parallel, each parallel leg is regarded as a separate circuit for current rating purposes and the
appropriate rating factors for grouping are applicable. Refer also to Figure 2.3 (Section 2 General Technical Information)
for the arrangements of single core cables so as to ensure equal current sharing between parallel legs of the same phase.

Bonding of Screens
The current ratings given for single core cables assume that the copper wire screens are solidly bonded to earth at both
ends. Solid bonding can result in a reduction in current ratings on larger cables due to the heating effect of circulating
currents induced in the screen. This loss can be minimised, either in short runs of cable, by earthing at one end only
(single point bonding) which results in a standing voltage proportional to the conductor current and the length of run being
induced on the screen and in long runs of cable, by dividing the route into tri-sections and transposing or "crossbonding"
the screens at every joint position in a tri-section so that the e.m.f.'s induced by the three phases cancel one another.
When these methods of bonding are employed, higher current ratings may be used, however attention must be paid to the
safety aspects with respect to the induced standing voltages. This places a limitation on the length of circuit for which
single point bonding can be used.
Generally it is only considered practical to use special cross-bonding arrangements on transmission class cables (66 kV
and above) as the benefits of the higher current ratings are outweighed by the costs of the extra equipment required.

Emergency Ratings
TR-XLPE insulated cables can operate under emergency conditions with a conductor temperature of 130°C for periods of
up to 36 hours, not more than three times per year. In practice, however, due to the difficulty in ensuring compatibility with
terminations and the high volume expansion of TR-XLPE above 100°C, a limit of 105°C for emergency rating is specified in
AS/NZS 1429.1. The 105°C emergency limit represents the following approximate percentage increase over the normal
continuous ratings:
Cables in air: +12%
Cables in ground (laid direct or in ducts): +9%.
