Electrical Power Cable Engineering Third Version by William Thue


PREFACE
Preface The authors wish to acknowledge the virtually 40 years of devoted work by Professor Willis F. Lengthy of the Division of Engineering Skilled Growth on the College of Wisconsin–Madison, which has made this e book doable. It was due to his efforts that the primary course of a sequence, Power Cable Engineering Clinic, was offered within the early 1970s, the place Dr. Eugene Greenfield gave all his lectures for 8 hours a day throughout the 5 days of the course. He later added a number of lecturers to share the work load. The course was reorganized in 1999 and referred to as “How you can Design, Set up, Function, and Preserve Dependable Power Cable Techniques.” It was additionally divided into two periods: “Understanding Power Cable Traits and Functions” and “Assessing and Extending the Lifetime of Shielded Power Cable Techniques.”The current course is called “Understanding Power Cable Traits and Functions.” Through the years, quite a few lecturers have produced copious class notes that type the premise for a lot of the supplies, which has been rearranged right into a e book format. The contributors hope that their crew effort will likely be a helpful addition to the library of all devoted cable engineers.

The dynamics of the cable business produces many new supplies, merchandise, and ideas, that are included into new editions. New chapters have been ready (Low Voltage Cables and Thermal Resistivity of Soils) whereas others have been up to date and expanded (Conductors now consists of metric designations and Acronyms have been added to the Glossary) for this Third Version. Emphasis of this e book stays on low and medium voltages since they comprise the vast majority of cables in service all through the world. Transmission cables have the better sophistication from an engineering standpoint, however all the fundamental ideas that apply to transmission cables additionally apply to the decrease voltage cables. The viewers that can profit from the extremely educated writings and variety of the backgrounds of the contributors to this e book embody:

• Cable engineers and technicians employed by investor-owned utilities, rural electrical cooperatives, industrial customers, and energy manufacturing personnel

• Universities that supply electrical energy programs

• Cable producers who wish to present their staff with an oversight and understanding of energy cables

• Professionals searching for data to offer an understanding of the terminology, engineering traits, and background data of energy cables to help in making sound selections for specification, buy, set up, upkeep, and operation {of electrical} energy cables

Book Description:

“Fully updated, this third edition addresses the design, application, and preparation of terminating and splicing cables. The book provides methods for testing shielded power cable systems in the field and shows how conductor material, size, and design depend on ampacity, voltage regulation, and other factors. It also covers the up-to-date methods of design, manufacture, installation, and operation of power
Abstract: “Fully updated, this third edition addresses the design, application, and preparation of terminating and splicing cables. The book provides methods for testing shielded power cable systems in the field and shows how conductor material, size, and design depend on ampacity, voltage regulation, and other factors. It also covers the up-to-date methods of design, manufacture, installation, and operation of power cables. Written for professionals as well as students, this book emphasizes low and medium voltages because they comprise the quantity of cable in service throughout the world. This reference includes an extensive glossary, as well as key references, tables, equations, and photographs”–
“Preface The authors would like to acknowledge the almost 40 years of dedicated work by Professor Willis F. Long of the Department of Engineering Professional Development at the University of Wisconsin–Madison that has made this book possible. Because of his efforts, the first course of a series, Power Cable Engineering Clinic, was presented in the early 1970s where Dr. Eugene Greenfield gave all the lectures for 8 hours a day during the 5 days of the course. He later added a few lecturers to share the work load. The course was reorganized in 1999 and called “How to Design, Install, Operate, and Maintain Reliable Power Cable Systems” and divided into two sessions: “Understanding Power Cable Characteristics and Applications” and “Assessing and Extending the Life of Shielded Power Cable Systems.” The present course is known as “Understanding Power Cable Characteristics and Applications.” Over the years, numerous lecturers have produced copious class notes that form the basis for much of the material that has been rearranged into a book format. The contributors hope that their team effort will be a useful addition to the library of all dedicated cable engineers. The dynamics of the cable industry produces many new materials, products, and concepts, which are incorporated into new editions. New chapters have been prepared (Low Voltage Cables and Thermal Resistivity of Soils) while others have been updated and expanded (Conductors now includes metric designations and Acronyms have been added to the Glossary) for this Third Edition.
