Webinar: Understanding MV-HV Cables, testing, applications – cable selection and standards

Presenter: Blair​ Sackney, B.Sc. Eng – Major Projects Sales & Engineering Support

 Link:  https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/238123

Learning Objectives:

1. Medium Voltage cable CSA Standards
2. Understanding MV cable components and their purposes
3. MV Cable options
4. Testing

Overview:

This webinar will cover the basics of medium voltage cables. The CSA standards they are built to will be explained with how they result in cables suited to specific applications. Clarity will be given to which product types are typically commercially available, product types that can be made to order, and which product features can be specified. Each of the construction layers within a medium voltage cable will be shown and their functions defined. The goal is to understand how each construction layer provides benefits for different applications enabling designers to specify cables that best meets their projects’ unique requirements. Finally, a brief overview of factory and field acceptance tests will be covered.

Intended Audience:  Engineers, Designers, Manufacturer’s, Installers and Inspectors who are responsible for the design, selection and installation of medium voltage cables.
