Medium Voltage Covered Conductors upto 36 KV
Medium Voltage Covered Conductors are developed to improve the reliability of the distribution of electricity. Covered conductors consist of a conductor insulated by a covering made of insulating material(s) as protection against accidental contacts with other covered conductors and with grounded parts such as tree branches etc. MVCCs are produced in voltage rating between 6.6 KV to 33 KV. The applicable standards for MVCC are IEC: 61089/ BS EN: 50182/50397
Design Generally Confirming to EN 50397-1:2006
- Three Layer Covered Conductor
- Conductor-All Aluminium Alloy (AAAC) or Aluminum Conductor Steel-Reinforced (ACSR)
Conductor Shield-
- Semiconducting Compound – Extend the service life of the covered conductor
Inner Insulation Layer-
- Crosslinked Low Density Polyethylene – more flexible, High impulse strength, protect from phase-to-phase and phase-to-ground contact
Outer Layer-
- Crosslinked High Density Polyethylene – Abrasion and Impact Resistant, Stress-Crack Resistant, Titanium Dioxide, the most effective UV inhibitor, and providing the best track resistant
