Application Popular cable sheath grounding options
Single core cables in operation carry alternating currents and induced voltage in the metallic sheath of the cable. These currents may cause, depending on different sheath bonding, circulating currents flowing in the cable sheath which reduce the transmission capacity of the cable and cause an additional heating. Link boxes are used for earthing and bonding cable sheaths of single core cables so that the induced voltages and circulating currents are eliminated or reduced.
On relatively short cable sections the cable sheaths are solidly bonded together and earthed at one position. There will be a voltage between sheath and ground that will be at its maximum at the farthest point from the ground bond. No current flows along the sheaths and no sheath circulation current loss occurs.
Single point earthing
The cable route is sectionalized into equal lengths. The sections are cross connected to neutralize the induced voltages. The phase sum of the introduced voltages will be zero and hence there will be no circulating currents when the cable laying is symmetrical.
Cross bonding
For cables laying in unsymmetrical formations the phase sum of the voltages is not zero despite cross bonding . Be ing t ransposed at each joint position and then cross connected, each cable occupies the same relative position in the cable formation. By this means the phase sum of the induced voltage is over three sections the same.
