Installation Recommendations
The following installation recommendations are in accordance with IEEE 2002
1. Minimum bending radius
D:cable’s diameter(mm)
2. Cable pulling-in force
Care should be taken to prevent damage to insulation or distortion of cable during installation.
The pulling force in Newtons should not exceed 0.036 times the circular mil area of the coppercross-sectional area times the number of conductors in the cable when pulling on the conductorsutilizing pulling eyes and bolts. Pulling force for multicore cables when utilizing eyes or bolts shouldnot include drain or ground conductors in the copper cross-sectional area. When pulling with abasket weave grip, maximum pulling tension (per grip) should not exceed 4.5kN, or the valuecalculated for eyes or bolts, whichever is greater.
The sidewall pressure should not exceed a maximum of 7.3kN per meter of the inside radius of thebend.
Cables should not be pulled in freezing conditions. If conditions are below 0 , consult themanufacturer.
If it is necessary to pull in these conditions, cables shoulld be stored at a temperature above 10for 24 h prior to installation, if the cable has been previously stored in an area under 0 .
When installing low smoke cables, additional consideration should be given to handling andlubrication due to their possible lower tear strength and higher coefficient of friction than othermarine cable.
For more guidance concerning this subject, refer to IEEE Std 576-2001

3. Single-conductor ac cables
To avoid an undesirable inductive effect in ac installlations, the following precautions should beobserved.
Closed magnetic circuits around single-conductor ac cable should be avoided, and no magneticmaterial should be permitted between cables of different phases of a circuit.
a) Single-conductor ac cables should not be located closer than 76mm from parallel magneticmaterial.
b) Single-conductor ac cable should be supported on insulators. Armor, if used, should be groundedonly at approximately the midpoint of the cable run.
c) Where single-conductor ac cables penetrate the bulkhead, conductors of each phase of the samecircuit should pass through a common nonferrous bulkhead plate to prevent heating of thebulkhead.
d) Single-conductor cables in-groups should be arranged to minimize their inductive effect. This maybe accomplished by the transposition of cables in groups of three (one each phase) to give theeffect of triplexed cable. This transposition should be made at intervals of not over 15m and neednot be made in cable runs of less than 30m.
4. Cable continuity and grounding
All cable should be continuous between terminations, however, splicing is permitted under certain conditions. For cableprovided with armor, the armor should be electrically continuous between terminations and should be grounded at eachend (multiconductor cables only); except that for final subcircuits, the armor may be grounded at the supply end only.
5. Cable locations
Cable installation should avoid spaces where excessive heat and gases may be encountered such as galleys, boiler roomsand pump rooms, and spaces where cables may be exposed to damage such as cargo spaces and exposed sides of deckhouses. Cables should not be located in cargo tanks, ballast tanks, fuel tanks, or water tanks except to supply equipmentand instrumentaion specifically designed for such locations and whose functions require it to be installed on the tank. Suchequipment may include submerged cargo pumps and associated control devices, cargo monitoring, and underwaternavigation systems.
Unless unavoidable, cables should not be located behind or embedded in structural heat insulation. Where cables areinstalled behind paneling, all connections should be readily accessible and the location of concealed connection boxesshould be indicated. Cables should preferably not be run through refrigerated cargo spaces.
Cables should not be located below the faceplate of the vessel s main bottom structural members or within .6m above anydouble bottom tanktop.

6. Cable protection
Cables should be adequately protected where exposed to mechanical damage. Cables should be securedagainst chafing or displacement due to vibration. Cables in bunkers, and where particularly liable to damage,such as locations in way of cargo ports, hatches, tank tops, and where passing through decks, should beprotected by removable metal coverings, angle irons, or other equivalent means.
Where cables pass through insulation, they should be protected by a continuous pipe. For wiring enteringrefrigerated compartments, the pipe should be of heat-insulating material (fiber or phenolic tubing) joined tothe bulkhead-stuffing tube, or a section of such material should be inserted between the bulkhead-stuffing tubeand the metallic pipe.
Where cables are installed in pipes, the space factor (ratio of the sum of the cross-sectional areascorresponding to the external diameter of the cables to the internal cross-sectional areas of the pipe) shall notbe greater than 0.41, except for two cables, where the space factor shall not exceed 0.31, Pipes shall be soarranged or designed to prevent the accumulation of internal condensation.
(3) Construction and resistances of flexible stranded conductors.
* Rope lay strandedNote) The number of strands are nominal and may vary so as to comply with both the d.c resistance and maximum
diameter requirements.Resistance( /km) were calculated from the ICEA formula and converted to /km at 20 .R=Ro Ko(3.281) K1(0.98073)

Technical information
Short circuit current ratings
(1) The following short current ratings are for cable normally operating at a maximum conductor temperature of 100(2) The theoretical temperature that arises in the conductor during a short circuit, which is used as a basis of the
calculation, is 250 in accordance with IEC 60724.(3) EPR and XLPE insulation are capable of withstanding of short term temperature up to 250(4) The short circuit current ratings for copper conductors given in the table are values for one second for other duration
the current may be calculated from the following formula;
lt = short circuit current for t second (kA)l1 = short circuit current for one second (kA)t = short circuit duration (second)
(5) The duration of the short circuit based on these assumptions should be between 0.2 sec. and 5 sec.
lt = l1

4) The above current-carrying capacities are for marine installations with cables arranged in a single bank per hanger andare 85% of the ICEA calculated values. Double banking of distribution-type cables should be avoided. For thoseinstances where cable must be double banked, the current-carrying capacities in the above table should be multipliedby 0.8.
5) The ICEA calculated current capacities of these cables are based on cables installed in free air, that is, at least onecable diameter spacing between adjacent cables.
