Maximum safe pulling lengths for solid dielectric insulated cables. Volume 1. Research data and cable-pulling parameters. Final report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5042709

This two-volume report presents the results of a recent program to investigate and update the parameters that affect the maximum safe pulling length for solid dielectric cables. In this program, 23 types of solid dielectric cables rated 600 V through 138 kV were studied. The cables had copper and aluminum conductors in sizes from 1/0 AWG (54 mm/sup 2/) to 2500 kcmil (1266 mm/sup 2/) and insulations of cross-linked polyethylene and ethylene propylene rubber.
