Notes
- 1.
Paper suppliers prefer to specify the paper “thickness” in grams per square metres (g/m2).
- 2.
In older books on the subject, the word “sheathing” is used for “armouring”.
- 3.
Cables for submarine applications are explicitly excluded from the scope of IEC 60502-2. However, it can be considered to use IEC 60502-2 for informational tests in medium voltage submarine cables.
- 4.
4Electra No. 171 is “primarily meant for cables having a rated voltage U0 higher than 36 kV a.c. or 100 kV d.c.”. However, Electra 189a covering 33 kV cables refers to Electra 171.
- 5.
The established expression “side-wall pressure” actually does not denote a pressure (N/m2) in a classical sense but a force per unit length. The unit of SWP is kN/m.
