IEC 60287-2-1:2015 is solely applicable to the conditions of steady-state operation of cables at all alternating voltages, and direct voltages up to 5 kV, buried directly in the ground, in ducts, in troughs or in steel pipes, both with and without partial drying-out of the soil, as well as cables in air. The term "steady state" is intended to mean a continuous constant current (100 % load factor) just sufficient to produce asymptotically the maximum conductor temperature, the surrounding ambient conditions being assumed constant. This part of IEC 60287 provides formulae for thermal resistance. This second edition of IEC 60287-2-1 cancels and replaces the first edition, published in 1994, Amendment 1:2001, Amendment 2:2006 and Corrigendum 1:2008. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:a) inclusion of a reference to the use of finite element methods where analytical methods are not available for the calculation of external thermal resistance;b) explanation about SL and SA type cables;c) calculation method for T3 for unarmoured three-core cables with extruded insulation and individual copper tape screens on each core;d) change of condition for X in 5.4;e) inclusion of constants or installation conditions for water filled ducts in Table 4.
The contents of the corrigendum of January 2008 have been included in this copy.
Is solely applicable to the conditions of steady-state operation of cables at all alternating voltages, as well as in direct voltages up to 5 kV, buried directly in the ground, in ducts , in troughs or in steel pipes, both with and without partial drying-out of the soil, as well as cables in air.
IEC 60287-2-1:2023 is solely applicable to the conditions of steady-state operation of cables at all alternating voltages, and direct voltages up to 5 kV, buried directly in the ground, in ducts, in troughs or in steel pipes, both with and without partial drying-out of the soil, as well as cables in air. The term "steady state" is intended to mean a continuous constant current (100 % load factor) just sufficient to produce asymptotically the maximum conductor temperature, the surrounding ambient conditions being assumed constant.
To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.
The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document "ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents" as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
