All rights reserved.34.1 Advantages4.1.1 Weight reductionThe use of an aluminum sheath reduces the weight of the cable compared with those having other metallicsheaths, thereby simplifying installation and lowering
42、shipping costs. Furthermore, longer pulling lengthsare possible with reduced cable weight.4.1.2 Electrical protectionAs a sheath, aluminum is characterized by high electrical conductance and consequently by high short-circuit capability. In addition, high conductance offers excellent protection agai
43、nst lightning.4.1.3 Fatigue resistanceAluminum has very good mechanical properties, for example, hardness and fatigue resistance. Therefore,the possibility of sheath fatigue failure due to vibrations and movement induced by thermal cycling isminimal.4.1.4 Mechanical protectionAluminum has a higher y
44、ield point, higher tensile strength, and less creep by comparison with other moreductile sheathing materials. These attributes permit fewer clamps for installations in tunnels or aboveground. The high hoop strength of aluminum sheath is particularly important in pressurized cables, since itmay permi
45、t a reduction in the number of stop joints and pressure tanks.4.2 Limitations4.2.1 Corrosion resistanceAluminum is a relatively active metal chemically, and care must be taken to provide adequate protectionagainst corrosion.4.2.2 Bend performanceBecause of its rigidity, smooth-aluminum-sheathed cabl
46、e is more difficult to bend than corrugated-aluminum-sheathed cable.4.2.3 Jointing and terminatingFor jointing and terminating, an aluminum sheath requires techniques different from those applicable toother commonly used metals, and retraining of splicing and terminating crews may be necessary.4.2.4
47、 Sheath lossesBecause of its high electrical conductance, losses resulting from induced sheath currents and eddy currentsare substantial. These losses can be reduced by selecting thinner sheaths and by using special sheath bondingmethods for single-conductor cables.Authorized licensed use limited to

49、rial because of the scarcity of lead.As the technical and economic advantages of aluminum were recognized, its use escalated rapidly.Initially, aluminum was used in applications previously dominated by lead, namely, solid-type paper-insulated medium-voltage cables. The aluminum sheath was of the smooth type; a corrugated sheath was notused initially because of compound drainage into the corrugations. Subsequently, however, the corrugatedsheath found widespread acceptance, mainly in low-voltage extruded-dielectric cables and large-size flu
