Know Your Options: 69 kv XLPE Power Cable 3
material and size material is a matter of both customer preference and required current carrying capacity Copper conductor common for larger loads When both copper and aluminum conductors can meet your requirements, the more economical solution will be a function of the metal and the cable component costs Insulation thickness For cables with a radial moisture barrier, Southwire Standard Wall reduced insulation thicknesses within the stress limits in AEIC specification CS9 are recommended Cables referred to by Traditional Wall insulation (650 mils) follow the traditional insulation wall practice referenced in ICEA standard S-108-720 appendix F as still specified by a number of customers and utilities For applications requiring smaller cable diameters, specific designs are available upon request Section 2 69 kv Power Cables Sheath material Copper and aluminum corrugated sheaths offer the best mechanical and moisture protection for your HV cable, and copper will provide better short circuit performance and improved connectability Full wall cables with concentric neutrals are an economical option for mostly dry environments Composite laminate sheaths in both copper and aluminum that offer excellent protection against moisture ingress Jacket Standard outer jacket: extruded LLDPE with a co-extruded outer semi-conductive polyethylene layer for jacket integrity testing Halogen Free Fire Retardant (HFFR) compounds are available upon request for installations in cable trays and ventilated troughs 4
