EmPowr® Fill Shielded Power Cable 15-35 kV (US)

EmPowr® Fill Shielded Power Cable 15-35 kV (US)
Product description

Cross-linked semi-conducting conductor shield, insulation and semi-conducting insulation shield are extruded over a solid or stranded aluminum conductor and cured in a single operation. Corrugated copper tape and an extruded black jacket are applied over the cable core. These products meet the latest requirements of ANSI/ICEA S-97-682 and AEIC CS8, as applicable, for Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR)- insulated shielded power cables.

 

Product Construction

Conductor: Solid or Class B compressed concentric lay stranded 1350 aluminum. 

Conductor Shield: Extruded semi-conducting thermosetting polymeric stress control layer. 

Insulation: Extruded Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR) Class II and III. 

Insulation Shield: Extruded semi-conducting thermosetting layer, clean and free of stripping from insulation. 

Longitudinally Applied Corrugated Tape: Copper, 8 or 10 mil thick Longitudinally Applied Corrugated Tape (LACT) with a minimum 375 mil overlap. 

Jacket: Black, non-conducting, sunlight-resistant, Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LLDPE).

 

Features and Benefits

  • Even distribution of fault current and better heat dissipation
  • Allows expansion/contraction of cable core
  • Improved bending characteristics versus helical copper tape shield
  • Triple-extruded for clean interfaces
  • Class 10,000 environment utilized for cable core material handling
  • Flexibility for easy handling
  • Excellent moisture resistance
  • Deformation-resistant
  • High dielectric strength
  • Low dielectric loss
  • Excellent resistance to water treeing
  • Clean-stripping insulation shield without the use of a release agent
  • Sunlight-resistant 

 

Temperature Rating

  • Normal 105°C
  • Emergency 140°C (Operation at the emergency overload temperature shall not exceed 1500 hours cumulative during the lifetime of the cable)
  • Short Circuit 250°C

 

Applications

EmPowr® Fill cables are intended for use in dry or wet locations for the distribution of three-phase medium-voltage power. These cables may be installed in ducts or direct buried.
