Outlook on XLPE cable

Since 1890 the United Kingdom laid the world's first natural rubber insulated submarine XLPE cable, 100 in recent years, a large number of the submarine cable has been widely used, and manufacturing technology and materials to improve the voltage level has been up to 500kV, in addition to AC transmission, direct current transmission has been widely used in the seabed area, transmission distance is also from tens of kilometers to hundreds of kilometers.

Development experience of XLPE cable

A submarine cable is a cable that is laid on the bottom of the sea and under the river. Since the submarine cable project is recognized as a large engineering complex in the world, it is one of the world's manufacturing factories in the world. At present, most of the submarine power cable used in our country still needs to be imported.

XLPE cable is mainly used for long-distance communication networks, which are usually used in remote islands, cross-sea military facilities, and on other important occasions, the cost is expensive, but the degree of confidentiality is high. Submarine power cable laying distance of a communication cable compared to much shorter, mainly used for underwater transmission high-power electric, and underground power cables is equivalent, but in different application occasions and laying. 

It is mainly used between the island and the mainland, across a river or harbor, from the land connection between drilling or drilling platforms are connected to one. Under normal circumstances, the application of the submarine XLPE cable transmission power is no doubt more expensive than the same length of the aerial cable, but it is often used as a small and isolated power station for regional power generation more economical, more applications in offshore areas more
