scope:
The scope of this guide includes corrosion of copper shields in jacketed and unjacketed extruded dielectric cables rated 5 kV to 46 kV. The function of the metallic shield and consequences of significant loss of shield wires, straps, or tapes are discussed. The causes of corrosion in cable metallic shields, and the methods available to assess this corrosion are described. Recommendations are made for the mitigation and control of corrosion of cable metallic shields.
Purpose
The purpose of this document is to provide guidance for the assessment, mitigation, and control of corrosion in metallic shield wires, straps, or tapes in both jacketed and unjacketed, medium voltage, extruded dielectric cables rated 5 kV to 46 kV.
