  • IEEE Guide for the Design and Installation of Cable Systems in Substations

    IEEE Std 525-1992, 1993

    Guidance for the design, installation, and protection of wire and cable systems in substations with the objective of minimizing cable failures and their consequences is provided. The topics covered include cable performance, conductor sizing, power cable rating, cable systems segregation, redundant cable systems separation, shielding, cable penetration fire stops, fire detection and fire extinguishing systems, and cable raceways.<<ETX>>

  • New advances in jet-assisted plowing for the undersea cable construction industry

    Kober, J.H.; Messina, F.D.; Dean, D. OCEANS 2000 MTS/IEEE Conference and Exhibition, 2000

    Cable burial by plowing, using large sled-type cable plows towed by large powerful cable ships is the standard and most widely used commercial method of protecting submarine telephone cables from fishing activity, large ship anchors and other ocean hazards. With the world's transoceanic cable systems now rapidly expanding into a global undersea network for the new millennium-and transoceanic cables connected ...

  • Study on ocean observatories by re-use of retired optical submarine cable

    Shirasaki, Y.; Wakabayashi, H.; Honuchi, Y.; Kojima, J.; Ishikawa, Y.; Asakawa, K.; Mikada, H.; Kawaguchi, K. OCEANS '04. MTTS/IEEE TECHNO-OCEAN '04, 2004

    First and second-generation optical submarine cable systems have been retired. The first generation systems (OS-280M) operate at a rate of 295.6 Mbps per fiber pair and second generation systems (OS-560M) operate at a rate of 5912 Mbps per fiber pair. These cables run along geophysical important places such as the Japan Trench, the Nankai Trough, and along a seismic subduction ...

  • Choice of cable for subsea power links

    Jeffs, M.D. Power Engineering Society Winter Meeting, 2000. IEEE, 2000

    Summary form only given. Subsea cable technology has advanced to allow the manufacture of both single and three core cables for bulk power transfer between transmission systems in continuous lengths up to 100 km. The mechanical and electrical integrity of these cable systems is enhanced by the ability to manufacture the cable in long lengths, thereby removing discontinuities at jointing ...

  • IEEE Guide for Field Testing of Laminated Dielectric, Shielded Power Cable Systems Rated 5 kV and Above With High Direct Current Voltage

    IEEE Std 400.1-2007 (Revision of IEEE Std 400.1-1991), 2007

    The recommended practices and procedures for direct voltage acceptance and maintenance testing of shielded, laminated dielectric insulated power cable systems rated 5 kV and above are presented in this guide. It applies to all types of laminated power cable systems such as paper insulated, lead covered, pipe-type, and pressurized cables that are intended for the transmission or distribution of electric ...

  • Fiber Optic Installation

    Johnson, Larry Fiber Optic Installation, 2009

    Whether your installation is for short distance campus environments, long distance underground, aerial placement or a specialized installation such as submarine, air blown fiber, or pressurized cable, the use of fiber optic cable requires proper techniques for a successful installation. Today.s installers and designers must address building codes and standards, environmental issues, proper design, routing, and equipment for installations involving ...

  • OTDR Theory and Operation - Operating the OTDR

    Johnson, Larry OTDR Theory and Operation - Operating the OTDR, 2009

    In this tutorial, we examine the OTDR's key role which is the acceptance testing of optical fibers and cables. This is followed by a review of the key task for users--identifying and measuring splices in the optical cable span. Next we examine reflectance, which is recognized today as a limitation of high-performance systems. This is followed by a review of ...
