IEC cable standards

Before we dive deeply into techniques for removing the bonded semiconductive layer from (N)TSCGEWÖU cables, I need to address something important about the question itself. The title asks about comparing shaving tool methods versus heat methods. This comparison suggests that both approaches might be viable alternatives that professionals choose between based on preference or circumstances. However, after extensive review of industry practices, manufacturer guidelines, and professional standards from organizations including utility companies, cable accessory manufacturers, and electrical standards bodies, I must be clear: heat is not a standard or recommended method for removing bonded semiconductive screens from medium voltage cables.
