Underground cables are used in power applications where it is impractical, difficult, or dangerous to use overhead power lines. They are widely used to power consumer facilities from densely populated urban areas, factories, and even overhead stanchions. Underground electric power cables have several advantages over overhead power lines. It has a small voltage drop, is less likely to fail, and has lower maintenance costs. However, the manufacturing cost is high, and the cost may vary depending on the structure and rated voltage. Underground Cables Are Classified In Four Ways, Based On Their Voltage capacity Construction Insulation of cable Underground power installations Classification Based On Voltage LT cable: Low voltage cable with a maximum capacity of 1000V HT cable: High voltage cable up to 11KV ST cable: Super tension cable rated at 22 KV to 33 KV EHT cable: Ultra-high voltage cable rated at 33 KV to 66 KV Additional super voltage cable: Maximum ...
