Why Single core Armored Cable Should Use Non magnetic Materials?

When a single core cable is started or stopped by alternating current or direct current, a corresponding alternating magnetic field will be generated around the cable, and an induced current will be generated in the metal material. This current flows inside the metal material, much like a vortex of water, so it is called eddy current, or eddy current for short. The thermal effect of eddy current can heat the metal materials in a short time. If the heat cannot be emitted in time, it will cause the cable insulation layer to melt or accelerate the aging, and the insulation performance will be weakened, thus causing cable breakdown.   The armored steel strip has good magnetic conductivity, which can be magnetized under a small magnetic field and generate eddy current. Non magnetic materials such as stainless steel tape, copper tape, aluminum tape or non-magnetic metal wire shall be used for armouring of single core cables.   In addition, it is better to lay single core cables in finished form during construction. Single core cables should avoid magnetic materials as far as possible, such as iron pipes, iron clamps, etc., which can form closed loop magnetic materials.   In addition, for a three core cable, the alternating magnetic fields generated by the three core phase relationship cancel each other, so that the sum of the induced current vectors is 0, and no magnetic force lines pass through the armor. Therefore, steel tape armouring can be used.

Importance of power cable sheath

Power cables are widely used to transmit and distribute electric energy. They are often used in urban underground power grids, outgoing lines of power stations, internal power supply of industrial and mining enterprises, and underwater transmission lines across rivers and seas. The main lines in the power system are generally power cables used to transmit and distribute high-power electric energy, including 1-500kv and above voltage levels. Therefore, the quality of cable products is very important, and the quality and thickness of cable sheath are equally important. What effect does the thickness of cable sheath have on the cable? 1. Affect the service life of power cables The first is the environment. After the construction of power cables, they are basically buried in the ground, immersed in water, in the open air or in an environment prone to corrosion, plus the corrosion of external media for a long time, the insulation level and mechanical level of the thinnest point of the cable sheath will decline. In case of line grounding fault, the thinnest point of cable sheath may be broken down, increasing the hidden danger of safety accidents. The other is the internal consumption of heat energy generated by cables. The cable will produce a lot of heat energy in the process of transmitting electric energy, which is a consumption of the sheath. If the thickness of the cable sheath is not enough, the copper core of the conductor will directly melt the sheath material after heating, which will cause circuit failures and other related safety problems. 2. Impact on Construction According to the current requirements, more and more environmental requirements require that the outer diameter of high-voltage cable products must be small, and it is necessary to consider leaving gaps in the laying process, so as to dissipate the heat generated by the cable after it is powered on. The thickness of the sheath is too thick, which will increase the difficulty of laying, so the thickness of the cable sheath must strictly comply with the relevant national standards, otherwise it cannot protect the cable conductor.
