British Standard BS5467 | IEC 60502-1

Standard Overview

標準概述
English

British Standard BS5467 specifies the requirements for low voltage armoured cables with thermosetting insulation rated at 600/1000V for fixed installations. These cables feature galvanised steel wire armour (SWA) for multi-core configurations and non-magnetic aluminium wire armour (AWA) for single-core applications.

The standard encompasses cables with 1 to 48 cores, utilizing either plain annealed stranded copper (Class 2) or solid aluminium (Class 1) conductors per BS 6360/IEC 60228. The cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation ensures stable operation at maximum conductor temperatures of 90°C continuous and 250°C during short-circuit conditions.

繁體中文

英國標準BS5467規定了額定電壓600/1000V熱固性絕緣低壓鎧裝電纜的技術要求,適用於固定安裝場合。該類電纜採用鍍鋅鋼絲鎧裝(SWA)用於多芯結構,採用非磁性鋁絲鎧裝(AWA)用於單芯結構。

該標準涵蓋1至48芯電纜,導體採用符合BS 6360/IEC 60228標準的退火絞合銅線(2類)或實心鋁線(1類)。交聯聚乙烯(XLPE)絕緣確保電纜在最高導體溫度90°C連續運行及250°C短路條件下穩定工作。

BS5467 cables are widely used power cables both in the UK and prevalent in international projects specified to British standards. They are hard-wearing and suitable for indoor, underground (direct burial in free draining soil or embedded in concrete) and outdoors without additional protection.

BS5467 Medium Voltage Option (1.9/3.3kV)

BS5467中壓選項(1.9/3.3kV)
English

While less commonly specified, BS5467 also allows for cables rated at 1.9/3.3kV voltages. These medium voltage variants share the same robust XLPE/PVC/SWA/PVC construction but with enhanced insulation thickness to accommodate the higher voltage rating.

For larger cross-sectional sizes, sectoral-shaped (sector-shaped) conductors may be used to reduce the overall cable diameter while maintaining the required conductor area. This optimization improves handling and installation flexibility while reducing material costs.

繁體中文

雖然較少被指定使用,但BS5467標準也允許額定電壓為1.9/3.3kV的電纜。這些中壓型號採用相同的堅固XLPE/PVC/SWA/PVC結構,但絕緣厚度增加以適應更高的電壓等級。

對於較大截面積的電纜,可採用扇形導體來減小電纜整體直徑,同時保持所需的導體截面積。這種優化設計改善了操作和安裝靈活性,同時降低了材料成本。
