Description
Key Features:
- High Electrical Performance:
- Dielectric Strength: XLPE insulation has excellent dielectric properties, which means it can withstand high electric fields without breaking down.
- Low Dielectric Loss: The insulation has low dielectric losses, which improves the efficiency of power transmission.
- Thermal Stability:
- High Temperature Resistance: XLPE can operate at higher temperatures (up to 90°C continuously and up to 250°C under short-circuit conditions) without degradation.
- Long Life Span: The material resists thermal aging, contributing to a longer service life of the cable.
- Mechanical Properties:
- Flexibility and Strength: The cable is robust and flexible, which makes installation easier, especially in complex routing environments.
- Resistance to Environmental Factors: XLPE is resistant to moisture, chemicals, and UV radiation, enhancing the cable’s durability in harsh environments.
- Safety and Reliability:
- Fire Retardant: XLPE cables are available in fire-retardant versions that reduce the risk of fire propagation.
- Non-Migratory: The material does not leak or migrate, which prevents contamination and degradation of insulation properties over time.
- Ease of Installation:
- Lightweight: Compared to other types of high voltage cables, XLPE cables are relatively lightweight, making them easier to handle and install.
- Less Maintenance: Due to their robustness and reliability, HV XLPE cables require less frequent maintenance.
