FAQ
What does 35kV ABC cable mean?
It refers to Aerial Bundled Cable designed for 35kV medium-voltage distribution systems, featuring multiple insulated conductors bundled together with messenger wires for overhead installation
What insulation materials are used?
Typically XLPE (Cross-linked Polyethylene) insulation rated for 90°C continuous operation, providing superior thermal stability and dielectric strength compared to low-voltage ABC cables
What's the maximum span length?
Standard designs allow 100-150m spans depending on wind/ice load conditions, with reinforced variants supporting up to 200m spans through high-strength aluminum alloy messenger
Does it require lightning protection?
Yes, shielded versions incorporate concentric neutral conductors or metallic screens complying with IEC 60502-2 for surge protection in exposed installations
Can it be installed in coastal areas?
Special anti-corrosion versions with weather-resistant XLPE compound and tinned copper screens are available for salt-laden environments
What's the bending radius requirement?
Minimum 12×cable diameter during installation (e.g., 480mm for 40mm diameter cable) to prevent insulation damage
How does it handle short-circuit currents?
Rated for 250°C for 5 seconds during short circuits, with copper screen variants achieving higher fault current capacity than aluminum screens
Is jointing different from underground cables?
Yes, requires specialized aerial joints with UV-resistant covers and tension-resistant mechanical design for field installation
What maintenance is required?
Periodic infrared thermography to detect hotspots, plus visual inspection for tree/wildlife damage in forested areas
