XLPE (cross-linked polyethylene) resin is a type of thermosetting polymer used in the manufacturing of electrical cables. It offers high thermal and chemical resistance, excellent electrical properties, and low water absorption. XLPE resin is commonly used in medium to high voltage power cables for transmission and distribution of electricity.
The higher voltage drop in XLPE cables compared to PVC cables is due to the different electrical properties of the materials. XLPE has a lower dielectric constant and higher resistivity than PVC, leading to a higher internal resistance and therefore higher voltage drop. Additionally, XLPE cables usually have a higher operating temperature, which can also contribute to increased voltage drop.
The maximum operating temperature for submarine XLPE cables is typically around 90 degrees Celsius, while the minimum temperature for operation would be around -15 to -20 degrees Celsius. These temperature ranges ensure that the cables can function effectively in various marine environments.
Resin is gum type materials of the pine tree. This can extract from pine tree through different methods. Rosin is that which is made from resin. When the resin will be melted and make separation. Then rosin and turpentine oil will made from rosin. Resin cannot made from rosin, its directly extract from pine tree.
Yes, maritime pines (Pinus pinaster) do contain resin. The resin is extracted from the tree through a process called tapping, where small holes are made in the bark to collect the resin.
You can find resin treatment trays at art supply stores, resin supply stores, or online platforms such as Amazon, Etsy, or specialized resin craft websites. Make sure to choose a tray that is compatible with resin and fits the size requirements for your projects.
The purpose of the semiconductor over XLPE is to equalize the electrical stresses over a large area.
as an insulation
for high voltage more than 11 KV and low current we can use XLPE cable.
The full form of XLPE is Cross-Linked Polyethylene. XLPE is a type of polyethylene in which the polymer chains are chemically linked, or cross-linked, to improve its thermal and mechanical properties. This cross-linking enhances the material's resistance to heat, pressure, and environmental stress, making it suitable for use in insulation for high-voltage cables and wires.

XLPE = Cross-Linked Polyethelene There are actually two semi-conductive layers on high voltage cable. One is between the actual conductors and the XLPE. The other semi-con is on outside of the XLPE insulation underneath the concentric neutral. The semi-con is used to equalize the electrical stresses over a large area. For example, most conductors are made up of multiple strands of copper or aluminum. The outer edge of the conductor bundle is not smooth. It has several ridges on the outer edge where the individual strands meet one another. These high spots will stress the insulation leading to a premature failure. The internal semi-con makes a smooth voltage level for the XLPE where it meets the conductor strands.
LT XLPE is a type of power cable often used in computers. They are known to be able to take high voltage transfers and short circuit much less than other types.
