IEC 60183:2015 is intended to give guidance in the selection of a.c. high-voltage cables and cable systems with extruded insulation and mainly to be used on threephase altemating systems operating at voltages exceeding U- 1 kV (in this standard the term ‘high voltage’ is used to cover any cable above 1 kV)_ Submarine cables are not included in the scope.
Guidance is given in the selection of the conductor size, insulation level and constructional requirements of cable to be used. In addition, information necessary to enable the appropriate selection to be made is summarized.
