High-tension cables, also known as high-voltage cables, are designed to transmit electrical power at high voltages, typically above 1 kV.
1. Insulation:
Specialized insulation materials to withstand high voltage stresses.
2. Shielding: Often
shielded to reduce electromagnetic interference and ensure safety.
3. Durable
construction: Designed to withstand harsh environmental conditions.
1. Power
transmission: High-tension cables are used in power transmission lines and
substations.
2. Distribution
systems: Used in distribution systems to transmit power to industrial and
commercial areas.
3. Industrial applications: Used in industrial settings, such as manufacturing and processing plants.
High-tension cables play a crucial role in:
2. Reliability: Ensuring reliable power supply to industries, businesses, and households.
3. Safety: Designed to operate safely at high voltages, minimizing the risk of electrical shock or accidents.
1. Voltage rating: Selecting cables with the correct voltage rating for the application.
2. Insulation material: Choosing the right insulation material for the specific application and environment.
3. Installation: Proper installation and maintenance are critical to ensure safe and reliable operation.
