Detail of GB/T 12706.3-2008

Introduction of GB/T 12706.3-2008

1 Scope This part of GB/T 12706 specifies the construction, dimensions and test requirements of power cables with extruded solid insulation of 35 kV for fixed installations such as distribution networks or industrial installations. When determining applications, it is recommended that the possible risk of radial water ingress is considered. This part includes the tests of cables with longitudinal water resistance and radial waterproof structures (see Annex F for test methods). Cables for special installation and service conditions are not included, for example cables for overhead networks, the mining industry, nuclear power plants (in and around the containment area) nor for submarine use or shipboard application. 2 Normative references The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this part of GB/T 12706, constitute provisions of this part.
