88 Cable election Current carrying capacity and voltage drop Conductor sizes are nominated by the Wiring Rules (A/NZ 3000) for the wiring of socket outlets and lighting circuits in domestic and commercial buildings. For other types of installations: a) The cable must be capable of carrying the maximum continuous load of the circuit, with due regard for the insulating material and conditions of installation. b) The voltage drop from the consumer s terminals to any point in the installation must not exceed 5% of the nominal system voltage. implified tables of current ratings and voltage drops for commonly used cables are given on pages In large installations where current ratings are critical, attention is drawn to the comprehensive tables given in A/NZ : Installation conditions Nexans Olex cables are available for aerial, underground and submarine installations as well as in conduit, on racks or trays in air. pecial constructions available include: Brass or copper taped or nylon sheathed cables for resistance to termite and marine borer. teel wire armoured for areas where there is a high risk of mechanical damage. Alsecure fire performance low smoke halogen free cables for emer gency power and lighting and other purposes in areas of high fire risk. Alsecure Ceramifiable is a world first in fire performance cable with a polymer layer that hardens into a protective shield when exposed to fire. Versolex, the new high performance multipurpose cable for fixed and flexible applications. Lead alloy sheathing as a barrier to moisture or hydrocarbons. Alsecure Envirolex cables with low smoke emission and no halogen or lead for environmentally sensitive areas. Flexolex cables for flexible applications and where flexibility provides advantages during installation.

89 Cable election 3. Cable insulating and sheathing materials tandard Nexans Olex cables are available in a number of materials, including: Nexans Olex PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) insulated and sheathed cables are the economic choice for general wiring. They are resistant to occasional contact with most oils and solvents, clean and easy to handle and coloured to assist phase identification. PVC is suitable for operating temperatures up to 90 C and 90 HT, subject to the requirements of A/NZ PVC is inherently resistant to ultraviolet radiation and although some colours may fade the material will not significantly degrade due to the effects of sunlight and weather, maintaining its physical integrity if not physically abused. Care should be taken where cables are subjected to extremes of temperature or contact with crude petroleum, caustic materials or aromatic solvents. Nexans Olex synthetic rubber (EPR/CPE) insulated and sheathed cables are more flexible and have better resistance to oils and solvents than PVC. Nexans Olex EPR (Ethylene Propylene Rubber), while not oil resistant, has excellent dielectric properties and high voltage grades are available for cables up to 33kV. In addition, EPR is halogen free and therefore does not emit toxic or corrosive by-products when burned. Nexans Olex CPE (Chlorinated Polyethylene) is an excellent flexible insulation and heavy duty sheathing material. Although having lower insulation resistance than EPR it is suitable for low voltage cable insulation and is used as such in welding cables because of its oil resistance. X-90 (Cross-linked Polyethylene) has very high dielectric properties. It is halogenfree and also free of heavy metals such as lead and antimony. It has low smoke and toxicity when burned. It is a suitable alternative to PVC and is becoming more widely specified where there are environmental concerns. 87

90 Cable election Ceramifiable An insulation material that is polymeric in its normal state, but converts to an insulating ceramic that provides circuit integrity when burned. Normal state properties are suitable for continuous operation at 90 C or 110 C as selected. It is halogen-free, lead and antimony-free, and does not emit toxic or corrosive products when burned. HF-110-TP. Nexans Olex offers this thermoplastic, halogen and heavy metal-free sheathing as an alternative to PVC when these characteristics are required. The material has reasonable oil resistance and flexibility, with a high resistance to spread of fire. 88

91 Cable Installation In all cases, cables must be installed in compliance with the safety requirements of A/NZ Particular attention should be paid to the following: Current carrying capacities of cables depend on the temperature of the air or ground in which they are installed and the degree to which heat can escape. Except for a group of single core cables carrying the phase currents of a circuit, cables should be spaced to allow heat to escape. Wherever cables are installed in close proximity, especially in the ground, or enclosed in such a way as to restrict heat loss, their current carrying capacities must be reduced using a derating factor appropriate to the situation. For minimum voltage drop single core cables carrying the phase currents of a single circuit should be installed as closely as possible together, to minimise inductive reactance. The preferred formation for three phase conductors is a trefoil or cloverleaf pattern although flat formation may also be used. heaths should be in contact with one another in either case. A single core cable generates an alternating magnetic field around itself which can cause large increases in voltage drop and power loss due to transformer effect when ferrous metal (iron and steel) is allowed to encircle the cable. teel racking or ladder will not cause trouble, but the following must be observed: teel wire or tape armour is never used on a single core cable for AC use. Where three single phase cables pass through a steel bulkhead all must pass through the same hole. Where glanding is required it is usual to cut out a panel and replace this with a non-ferrous (metal or plastic) plate in which the three or four glands are mounted. hould plastic or non-ferrous gland plate material not be available, an alternative is to cut a slot (hacksaw blade width is adequate) between adjacent gland holes. This will provide physical and electrical isolation for the eddy current paths and stop the cable from overheating. 89
