HV laminated-insulated cables subject to bending: Problems and prospects
Thermo-mechanical bending (TMB) of pipe cables has become a topic of interest since the appearance of numerous failures in the only extensive utility installation of 345 kV cable. Those failures occur in the unsupported span of cable within the joint casing; the question naturally arises whether TMB distress will occur within the line pipe if within-joint failures are prevented (by rigidizing the joint). This question has engendered considerable speculation, and a certain amount of testing. It is the purpose of this paper to give a rather informal survey of the present thinking on the subject. This is necessarily a personal impression, as the experimentation to settle the main questions has not, at the present time; been effected.
