ABSTRACT
Interest in the analysis of wave propagation char-acteristics and transients associated with cable sys-tems has rapidly increased. In order to answer theneed of the analyst,impedances and admittances of var-ious cables have to be known. This paper describes ageneral formulation of impedances and admittances ofsingle-core coaxial and pipe-type cables. The formu-lation presented here can handle a coaxial cable con-sisting of a core, sheath and armor, a pipe-type cableof which the pipe thickness is finite and an overheadcable, which has not been discussed in the literatureheretofore.
Using the formulation presented in this paper, itnow becomes possible to analyze wave propagation char-acteristics and transients on any type of cable system.
1. INTRODUCTION
The growing use of cable systems and the increas-ing levels of capacity makes the analysis of wave prop-agation characteristics and transients on cable sys-tems an important task. The cases of underground sin-gle-core coaxial cables (SC cables) consisting of acore and sheath, and pipe-type cables (PT cables) ofwhich the pipe thickness is assumed to be infinite havebeen well studied!-5 However, SC cables consisting ofa core, sheath and armor, PT cables of which the pipethickness is finite, and overhead cables have neverbeen studied.
SC cables with a core, sheath and armor are quiteoften seen in the submarine cable case, and, in fact,this author has been asked about the possibility of cal-culating transients on such cables.6 So far, pipe en-closures were assumed to act as complete shields, thusavoiding consideration of earth return currents. Asfar as wave propagation characteristics and transientson inner conductors of the pipe enclosure are concern-ed, the assumption of the infinite thickness of thepipe is quite acceptable. But once the wave propa-gation and transients on the pipe are to be included,all the previous studies are not applicable. Thus, weneed a way of handling voltage and current on the pipe.
An analysis of overhead cables seemed to be over-due, although there is some need for it. This authorhas been asked to calculate transients in a gas insu-lated substation, where a bus and circuit breaker areenclosed in a pipe, and the pipe is overhead7 This canbe considered to be an overhead cable.
Because of the situation explained above, a for-mulation of impedances and admittances, which is ableto deal with an SC cable consisting of a core, sheathand armor, a PT cable having a finite thickness of the,pipe, and an overhead cable, has been developed in thepresent paper. The formulation is carried out in ageneralized manner so as to be able to handle all theabove cases.

2. IMPEDANCE AND ADMITTANCE
The impedance and admittance of a cable systemare defined in the two matrix equations.
d (V)/dx = - [Z] * (I)
d(I)/dx = - [Y] *V)
(1)(2)
where (V) and (I) are vectors of the voltages and cur-rents at a distance x along the cable. [Z] and [Y] aresquare matrices of the impedance and admittance.
In general, the impedance and admittance matricesof a cable can be expressed in the following forms.
IZ] = [Zi] + lZp] + [Zc] + Izo][Y] = s .[p1
[P] = [Pi] + IPp] + [Pc] + [Po] }(3)
(4)
where [P] is a potential coefficient matrix, and s=jw.In the above equations, the matrices with subscri-
pt"i"concern an SC cable and the matrices with subscri-pts"p"and "c" are related to a pipe enclosure. The ma-trices with subscript"o"concern cable outer media,i.e.air space and earth. When a cable has no pipe enclo-sure, there exists no matrix with subscripts"p"and "c".
In the formulation presented here, the followingassumptions are made.(1) The displacement currents and dielectric lossesare negligible.(2) Each conducting medium of a cable has constantpermeability.(3) The pipe thickness is greater than the penetrationdepth of the pipe wall for the PT cable case.The details will beexplained in the following sections.

Zcaj Zsaj Zaajwhere
Zccj = core self-impedance
= zcs + Zsa + Za4 - 2Z2m - 2Z3M
Zssj = sheath self-impedance
= Zsa + Za4 - 2Z3m

=Zsa + Za4- Z2m - 2Z3m
Zcaj = mutual impedance between the core andarmor

Zsaj = mutual impedance between the sheath andarmor

Zcs = Zii + Z12 + Z2j
Zsa = Z20 + Z23 + z3i
Za4 = Z30 + Z34 I (10)
When the SC cable consists of a core and sheath,the matrix of eq.(8) is reduced to a 2 x 2 matrix.
[Z1j] = Fzccj Zcsl (11 )LZcsj Zss5J
where
Zccj = ZCS + ZS3 - 2Z2mZssj = Zs3
Zcsj = ZS3- Z2m (12)and
ZS3= Z20 + Z23
If an SC cable consists only of a core, the sub-matrix is redued to one element.

When a cablesystem is overhead, the impedance is given by Carson!'When a cable system is underground,the impedance givenby Pollaczek"2 is used. If a cable is above a strati-fied earth, the earth return impedance developed byNakagawa, et.al.13 can be used.

3. DISCUSSION
(51)
(45) The formulation of impedances and admittances ofvarious cables given in the previous section includessome approximations. It may be important to discussthese approximations so as to make the limit of appli-cability clear when the formulation is used.
First of all, the major assumptions made for theformulation of impedances and admittances (on page 1 ofthe paper) should be discussed. The first assumptionis constant permeability. Quite offten, a pipe andarmor are ferromagnetic. It, however, seems to berather unusual to have high currents to cause satura-
(46) tion of the pipe or armor. Thus, in most cases, thesaturation of the pipe or armor can be neglected. Whenone needs to take the saturation into account, methodsproposed in references (3) and (4) can be used. In regardto the second assumption, displacement currents arenegligible as far as low frequencies (less than aboutlMHz) are concerned. In the analysis of transients and
pipe wave propagation on a cable system, the frequency ofinterest is, in most cases, less than 1 MHz. The die-lectric losses are small in comparison with the lossesin conducting media of cables and earth. Thus, theassumption is valid. The third assumption will be
(47) discussed later.No approximation is made for the impedances and
admittances of an SC cable as far as Carson's andPollaczek's earth impedances and Scheikunoff's cylin-drical conductor impedance are concerned. One shouldpay attention to the fact that Carsont and Pollaczek's
(50)

formulas of the earth return impedance are not appli-cable at frequencies higher than about lMHz becausethe effect of displacement currents is not included inthe formulas'.3 Thus, the formulation of the impedancesof both SC and PT cables is correct only upto aboutlMHz.
One can easily find that the formulation of theimpedances and admittances of an SC cable given in thispaper is identical to that given in reference (1) forthe case of a coaxial cable consisting of a core andsheath.
Two assumptoins are included in the PT cable case.The first one is that the eccentric cable positionswithin the pipe do not affect the internal impedancesand admittances of the inner conductors (SC cable) andthe impedances and admittances between the inner andouter surfaces of the pipe. Thus, the inner conductorimpedance and admittance of a PT cable become the sameas those of an SC cable. The same assumption has beenmade in references (3) and (4). If one needs to takeinto account the effect of the eccentricity on the in-ner conductor impedance, the formula of the outer sur-face impedance of the inner conductor given in refer-ence (5) can be used.
The second assumption concerns the case of finitepipe thickness. It is assumed that the pipe thicknesswill be greater than the penetration depth in the pipewall. If the pipe thickness is smaller than the pene-tration depth, the formulas of the pipe internal im-pedance given in eqs.(34) and (35) and potential co-
efficient given in eq.(49) can not be used. In that
1 0-3EC:

o-!
case, accurate formulas of the impedance and potentialcoefficient can be derived based on the work done byTegopoulos and Kriezis.15 Since these formulas are toocomplicated for practical usage, the assumption ofinfinite pipe wall thickness may be used, but only tocalculate the impedance and potential coefficients ofthe pipe. Note that earth return currents are not neg-lected and that complete shielding is not assumed.This assumption introduces negligible error for actualPT cables and for frequencies above 1OHz. Fig.3 showsa comparison of the pipe impedances for the cases ofthe pipe thickness being finite and infinite. It isclear that the impedance for the finite pipe thicknesscase approaches that for the infinite thickness case,at the frequency of lkHz. When the pipe thickness is4mm, which is nearly equivalent to the penetrationdepth at 10 Hz, its impedance is almost identical tothat for the infinite thickness case in the frequencyrange shown in the figure. The pipe thickness is, inmost cases, greater than the penetration depth. Thus,the assumption is valid.
Calculated results of admittances of a single-phase SC cable are shown in Fig.4. From the results,it is clear that the admittance ofan underground cableare much greater than those of an overhead cable. Theimpedance shows not a significant difference betweenunderground and overhead cables. Thus, it should beexpected that the attenuation of the undeground cableis much higher than that of the overhead cable, and thepropagation velocity is lower in the underground case.Similar results are obtained for the PT cable case.
The internal impedances of SC cables are shown inFig.5. Significant differences are observed for thecases of SC cables consisting only of a core, of coreand sheath, and of core, sheath and armor.

4. CONCLUSION
A general formulation of the impedances and ad-mittances of single-core coaxial cables and pipe-typecables is given. The formulation presented in thispaper can handle a coaxial cable consisting of a core,sheath and/or armor, a pipe-type cable of which thepipe thickness is either infinite or finite, and anoverhead cable. Numerical results based on this for-mulation are readily available using BPA's computerprogram EMTP with subroutine CABLE CONSTANTS.

Discussion
Adam Semlyen (University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada):Dr. Ametani's paper on cable impedances and admittances is based onthe assumption that such parameters are available between componentsof the cable. The contribution consists in assembling the basic data intomatrices defined in (1) and (2). The complexity of cable layouts tendsto obscure the analysis of basic phenomena and, therefore, a systematicmatrix formulation is useful. Could the author indicate the referencewhich provides details for the calculation of the cable parametersneeded for the computation of the impedance and admittance matrices?
,The author's remark that pipe enclosures of finite thickness do notprovide a complete shielding is theoretically correct, but, as shown inreference [A], the ground return current is actually quite small and,therefore, the ground path can be neglected.
Among the basic assumptions listed by the author, we find thatdisplacement currents are negligible. It is probably in conductors andnot in dielectrics where this assumption is considered, since all capaci-tive effects are related to displacement currents.
Clarifications concerning both problems discussed above would bewelcome.

A. Ametani: The author would like to thank the discussor for his inter-est in this paper.
In reply to his first comment, the author is not sure what thediscussor meant by his question. If he asked the derivation of the com-ponent impedances and admittances, references 1 and 10 could be theanswer for a coaxial cable and reference 3 for a pipe-type cable. If thediscussor asked formulas of each component impedance and admittance,these are given in detail in the present paper. Only the formula of theearth return impedance is not shown in this paper. This, however, is wellknown and can be found in references 11 to 13.
Concerning the second comment, I agree with Prof. Semlyen'scomment that the earth return current is actually quite small, andtherefore, the earth return path can be neglected if one concerns onlythe propagation modes within the pipe. But, if it is the case that thepropagation mode between the pipe and the earth, namely the earthreturn mode, becomes significant, for instance if one wants to know thesurface voltage of a gas insulated transmission line or bus which is over-head, we need to include the effect of the earth return path. For such acase, the earth return impedance is to be included in the pipe-type cablecase, though in most cases it can be neglected.
In reply to the third comment, the displacement currents mention-ed in the paper is related to the conductor as Prof. Semlyen pointedcorrectly. The assumption of neglecting the displacement currents isconcerned with the displacement currents between the cable and theearth, in other words, it concerns with the earth return impedance. Asfar as Carson's or Pollaczek's earth return impedance is adopted, we cannot deal with the displacement currents between a conductor and earth.
