APPENDIX A

CURRENT RATING INFORMATION

к Basic assumptions

The miikrwm permlsslbb conductor temperatures In continuous operation ага as follows:

  • EPAnnsuiated power cables in around + 70*C

  • EPHnnsulatad power cables in ak + 70°C

  • XLPE-insulated power cables in ргскжмі +65 °С

  • XLPE^nsulated power cables in ar + 70°C

ki around installations the basic assumptions are:

  • temperature of ground + 15*C

  • depth of laying 0,7m

  • thermal resistivity of soil 0.7 К m/W

In air installations the ambient is ♦ 25®C

The methods of installation have boon classified for cables not exceeding 1 kV and insulated conductors as follows:

Method A of installation: Cable has been instated so that the heat transfer coefficient between the cable surface and the outer surface of the wall or the material cowering the cable is К ■ 11 to SO W/®C m The method A of installation is considered to be:

  • inlaid insulations generaly

  • installation in lowered ceilings, installation troughs, gutters, mouldings etc

  • installations that dearly do not belong to the method В of installation,

Method В of installation: Cable has been installed on the surface so that the heat transfer coefficient between the cable surface and the outer surface of the wall or the material covering the cable is К > 50°С m*. The method В of installation is considered to be among others:

  • installation on surface (also In tubas) with its short passages

  • cables on racks with its short passages

  • inlaid insulation in stone constructions {concrete, tiles, etc ] - installation in shafts or cable ducts.
