1. SCOPE
This specification specifies the construction, dimensions and test requirements of electric
cables which the manufacturer shall comply in order to supply copper conductor, XLPE
insulation and FRPVC outer sheathed cables for 0.6/1(1.2) kV rated voltage conforming to
IEC60502-1.
Behavior of the cables under fire condition shall comply with requirement of vertical flame
spread test according to IEC 60332-3-24 (Category C).
2. REFERENCE STANDARDS
Except otherwise specified elsewhere in this specification, the cable shall be manufactured
and tested in conformity with the latest edition of the standards listed below:-
IEC 60228, Conductors of Insulated Cables

IEC 60502-1, Power cables with extruded insulation and their accessories for rated voltages
form 1 kV (Um = 1.2 kV) up to 30 kV (Um = 36 kV) - Part 1: Cables for rated voltages of 1 kV
(Um = 1.2 kV) and 3 kV (Um = 3.6 kV)
IEC 60332-3-24, Tests on electric cables under fire conditions –Part 3-24: Test for vertical
flame spread of vertically-mounted bunched wires or cables – Category C
3. DEFINITIONS
3.1 nominal cross-sectional area
value that identifies a particular size of conductor but is not subject to direct
measurement
3.2 nominal value
value by which a quantity is designated; it is checked by measurements taking into
account specified tolerances
3.3 approximate value
value which is only indicative; it is neither guaranteed nor checked
3.4 routine tests

tests made by the manufacturer on all production lengths of cable to demonstrate
their integrity
3.5 sample tests
tests made on samples of completed cable or components taken from a completed
cable, adequate to verify that the product meets the designed specifications
Page 3 of 20
4. APPLICATION / SERVICE CONDITIONS

These cables are designed to be suitable for fixed installations in duct, conduit, ladder, tray
and direct burial in ground.
The insulation and other components are capable of operation continuously at a maximum
conductor temperature of 90oC for normal operation and 250oC for short circuit
conditions.
5. CABLE CONSTRUCTION
The general construction of the cables is shown as cable drawing in Figure 1 to Figure 7
and consists of the followings
5.1 CONDUCTOR
The conductor shall be plain annealed copper. Conductor size up to 6 sq.mm. shall
be concentric stranded circular construction and conductor size above 6 sq.mm. shall
be compact stranded circular construction. All various conductor constructions shall
be conformable to IEC 60228 Class 2. Minimum number of wires and diameter of
conductor shall be complying with IEC 60228.
5.2 INSULATION
The insulation shall be cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) whose properties meet
electrical requirements, mechanical requirements and particular requirements
specify in IEC 60502-1.
The average thickness of insulation shall be not less than the nominal value specified
in Table 1 to Table 7. The minimum thickness shall not fall below 90% of the nominal
value by more than 0.1 mm.
tm > 0.9tn – 0.1
where
tm is the minimum thickness (mm)
tn is the nominal thickness (mm)
5.3 CORE IDENTIFICATION

If there is not any other requirement specified in tender documents, each insulated
core shall be identified by color as below
1-core: XLPE Natural color

2-core: Brown and Blue
3-core: Brown, Black, and Grey
4-core: Brown, Black, Grey and Blue
Ground core (PE): Green with Yellow strip
Page 4 of 20
5.4 CORE LAY UP

The insulated cores of multi-core cables shall be laid up together with left-hand lay.
Fillers may be used to fill interstices of the multi-core cables where necessary to give
the completed cable a substantially circular cross section.
Fillers shall be polypropylene filament or yarn or other non-hygroscopic materials

that is suitable for the operating temperature of the cable and compatible with the
insulating material. The suitable binding tape shall be applied over the laid up cores.
5.5 OVERSHEATH
The oversheath shall be an extruded layer of flame retardant polyvinyl chloride
(FRPVC) whose properties meet mechanical requirements and particular
requirements of PVC sheath type ST2 specified in IEC 60502-1.
The nominal thicknesses of oversheath are specified in Table 1 to Table 7. The

minimum thickness of oversheath shall not fall below 80% of the nominal value by
more than 0.2 mm.
tm > 0.80tn – 0.2
where
tm is the minimum thickness (mm)
tn is the nominal thickness (mm)
The color of the oversheath shall be Black.
6. CABLE MARKING AND IDENTIFICATION

The oversheath of the cables shall be legibly marked with the following information
throughout the length of the cables by printing method.
" PHELPS DODGE 0.6/1 kV CV-FD (XLPE/FRPVC) A X B + C SQ.MM., IEC 60502-1, IEC 60332-
3-24 CAT C "
Note A : specify the number of conductor

B : specify the nominal cross-sectional area of phase conductor
C : specify the nominal cross-sectional area of ground conductor (If require)
Sequential length number shall be marked on the oversheath of cable at 1 meter intervals.

7. TESTS AND INSPECTIONS

7.1 ROUTINE TESTS
The following routine tests shall be carried out in accordance with IEC 60502-1 on
each manufactured length of cable.
a) Measurement of the electrical resistance of conductors
b) High voltage test
7.2 SAMPLE TESTS

The following sample tests shall be carried out in accordance with IEC 60502-1. The
number of test sample shall be in accordance with IEC 60502-1.
a) Conductor examination
b) Check of dimensions
i) measurement of thickness of insulation and non-metallic sheath
ii) measurement of external diameter
c) Hot set test for XLPE insulation
8. PACKING AND LABELING
