17、s with other covered conductors and with grounded parts such as tree branches, etc. In comparison with insulated conductors, this covering has reduced properties, but is able to withstand the phase-to-earth voltage temporarily. Since covered conductors are unscreened, they are not touch-proof, i.e.
18、they must be treated as bare conductors with respect to electric shock. This standard does not cover aspects related to the installation of overhead lines such as determination of clearances, spans, sags, etc. 5 EN 50397-1:2006 1 Scope This Part 1 contains the requirements for covered conductors wit

27、e); Conductor material and cross-section according to EN 50182; Conductor design W (for watertight), K (for compacted); Rated voltage U in kV kV. EXAMPLE OF DESIGNATION “CCX 66-AL3 WK 20kV” is a XLPE-covered conductor with a rated voltage of 20 kV, longitudinal watertight compacted conductor of alum
28、inium alloy AL3 and a nominal conductor cross-section of 66 mm. 4.2 Construction requirements 4.2.1 Conductor Number of conductors: 1 Conductor material: aluminium alloy or steel reinforced aluminium Nom. cross-section: 35 mm to 240 mm (aluminium alloy), 50 mm to 150 mm (total cross-section for stee
29、l reinforced aluminium) Conductor design: the conductors may be compacted or non-compacted. Information on bare conductors in frequent use may be found in the national lists, contained in Annex F of EN 50182. However, for the purpose of this European Standard, conductors may be selected from any nat
30、ional table. Conductors deviating in design from the standard values have to be given by the manufacturer, but fulfilling all requirements given in EN 50182. Non-compacted conductors shall comply with EN 50182 (with the exception of the filling, if any). For compacted conductors, based on conductors
31、 according to EN 50182, the following paragraph applies: The outer diameter of the compacted conductor shall be 95 % ( 1 % for 7- and 19-wire constructions, 1,5 % for 37-wire constructions) of the diameter given in EN 50182. The rated tensile strength (RTS) shall be at least 95 % of the value given
32、in EN 50182. The d.c. resistance shall not exceed the value given in EN 50182 by more than 5 %. Special conductors may also be used (see Annex A). 7 EN 50397-1:2006 4.2.2 Filling The stranded conductor may be longitudinally watertight by means of adequate measures as e.g. filling with an adequate ma
33、ss. The filling mass or other materials for obtaining the longitudinal watertightness, shall be compatible with the conductor material and the material of the covering (see Table 2). 4.2.3 Covering The covering shall consist of a cross-linked polyethylene compound, which shall comply with the requir
34、ements according to Table 1, column 3 or of a thermoplastic polyethylene compound, complying with the requirements according Table 1, column 4.
