260kv cable underground installation
260kv cable underground installation
(OP)
All,
All the experts there, has anyone come across with installing 260kv cables buried underground? I am looking at an application where we possibly need to bury cables for a distance of 1.5km.
Few vendors offer 345kv cables suitable for direct burial, can someone help me answer the following:
1. Any restrictions?
2. Any splicing issue after every 800m?
3. Are there any standards that we can follow?
4. any installation that might have been done in north America?
5. How are the splices done?
Any information or references will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Bpn
