Basic knowledge of wire and cable(one)

May 16,2018
 Wire and cable are used to transmit electrical (magnetic) energy, information, and wire products that convert electromagnetic energy. The generalized wire and cable is also referred to simply as the cable, and the narrowly defined cable is the insulated cable. It can be defined as: an assembly consisting of the following parts; one or more insulated wire cores, and their respective possible covering layers. The protective layer and the outer sheath, the cable may also have additional non-insulated conductors.
1. What types of commonly used wires and cables are divided by purpose?
Answer: According to purpose, it can be divided into bare wire, insulated wire, heat-resistant wire, shielded wire, power cable, control cable, communication cable, and radio frequency cable.
2. What are the types of insulated wires?
Answer: The common insulated wires are the following: PVC insulated wire, PVC insulated cord, nitrile PVC mixture insulated cord, rubber insulated wire, agricultural buried aluminum core plastic insulated wire, rubber insulated cotton yarn Textile cords, PVC insulated nylon sheathed wires, PVC insulated cords for power and lighting, etc.
3, cable bridge for what kind of occasion?
Answer: Cable trays are suitable for general laying of power cables and control cables for indoor and outdoor use by industrial and mining companies. They can also be used for indoor and outdoor installations in telecommunications, broadcasting and television departments.
4,What are the cable accessories?
Answer: The commonly used electrical accessories include cable terminal junction boxes, cable intermediate junction boxes, connecting pipes and terminals, steel wiring slots, and cable trays.

5, what is the cable middle connector?
Answer: The device that connects the cable with the cable conductor, insulation shield and protective layer to connect the cable circuit is called the cable intermediate connector.
6, what is the main electrical wiring?
Answer: The main electrical connection is the connection mode of the main electrical equipment and busbars in power plants and substations, including the main busbars and plant power systems according to certain functional requirements.

7. What rules should be followed when selecting the section of a power cable?
A: The selection of power cables should follow the following principles:
(1) The rated voltage of the cable shall be greater than or equal to the rated voltage of the power supply system at the installation point;
(2) The continuous allowable current of the cable shall be equal to or greater than the maximum continuous current of the supply load;
(3) The cross-section of the core must meet the requirements for the stability of the short circuit of the power supply system;
(4) Verify that the voltage drop meets the requirements based on the length of the cable;
(5) The minimum short-circuit current at the end of the line should enable the protection device to operate reliably.
8. What are the advantages of cross-linked polyethylene cable and oil-paper cable?
A: (1) Easy to install because it allows a small minimum bending radius and light weight;
(2) Not subject to line drop*;
(3) Good thermal performance, allowing high operating temperature and large transmission capacity;
(4) The cable accessories are simple and all have a dry structure;
(5) Simple operation and maintenance, no oil leakage problem;
(6) Lower prices;
(7) High reliability and low failure rate;
(8) There are few manufacturing processes, simple processes, and significant economic benefits.
9. What are the requirements for clips for fixed AC single-core cables and why?
A: The fixture should be composed of no iron to form a closed magnetic circuit. This is because when the cable core passes current, magnetic lines are generated around it. The magnetic force line is proportional to the size of the current through the core. If magnetic materials such as iron are used, according to Electromagnetic induction shows that eddy currents will be generated in the iron parts to cause the cables to heat up and even cause damage to the cables. Therefore, it is not allowed to use iron pieces as fixing fixtures for single-core AC cables.
10. What are the biggest features and advantages of the following heat shrinkable cable head accessories?
A: The most important feature of the heat shrinkable attachment is to replace the traditional stress cone with a stress tube. It not only simplifies the construction process, but also reduces the size of the terminal of the joint. It is easy to install, saves time and labor, has superior performance, and saves metal. The heat-shrinkable cable attachment is a combination of a pouring type and a dry bag type, which combines the advantages of both types of accessories.
11. What inspections should be performed before the cable is laid?
Answer: (1) The bracket should be complete and painted.
(2) The cable model, voltage, and specifications meet the design.
(3) The cable is well insulated. When there is doubt about the sealing of the oil-paper cable, it should be judged by moisture; the buried cable and the small-bottom cable should pass the DC voltage test and pass the test; the oil sample of the oil-filled cable should pass the test.
(4) The oil pressure of the oil-filled cable should not be lower than 1.47 MPa.
21, crosslinked heat shrinkable cable accessories What are the advantages?
A: This is a new type of material. Compared with other types of accessories nowadays, it has the advantages of superior electrical performance, small size, low quality, easy installation, and matching materials. It also has weather resistance, anti-fouling properties, flame-retardant self-extinguishing, etc. ability.

12. When there is doubt about the oil-paper-insulated power cable seal, how to use a simpler method to check whether the cable insulation paper is damp?
A: Insulate the cable insulation paper or put it in the cable oil of about 150°C. Check that there is no “click” or white foam, indicating that it is not wet.

13. What should be stated on the cable signage and what are the requirements for the preparation?
Answer: The cable design number, cable type, specification and starting point should be indicated on the signboard. The serial cable should be used in parallel. Requires clear writing and easy to fall off.
14. Where should the orientation mark of the buried cable be located?
Answer: At both ends of the cable, the cable connector 50~100m at the cable connector changes the direction of the cable.
15. To make yellow ribbons for cable joints, black glass lacquer tapes, and alkali-free glass ribbons, etc., how to handle the tide before construction?
Answer: (1) Constant temperature drying method: The insulating tape is rolled into a small roll with a diameter of 25~30mm, placed in a constant temperature drying oven at 110~120°C for 4~5h, cooled and dried, and put into a dry sealed tube.
(2) Oil immersing and draining tide method: Put the small coil of insulating tape into the cable oil at a constant temperature of 120~130°C, and keep a distance of 30mm from the bottom of the pot. After a certain period of time, the oil surface will no longer produce foam, then it will be taken out and stored. In tanks with cable oil, the oil level should exceed all enclosed objects and seal it.
16. What is the role of the cable sheath?
A: The inner sheath is protected from mechanical damage and chemical corrosion, enhancing mechanical strength.
17, outdoor cable ditch should meet what requirements?
Answer: The upper part of the cable trench should be slightly higher than the ground. Covers should be covered with concrete. The cable should be laid flat on the bracket and have a good drain.
