Crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) has been widely used as power cable electrical insulation for many years. However, with a maximum continuous operating temperature of ∼90 °C, this impacts both continuous and emergency cable ratings and, consequently, has implications for power network operational flexibility. In this paper, we describe the principles underpinning new and patented thermoplastic insulation...
Crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) has been the cable insulation material of choice in many different transmission and distribution applications for many years and, while this material has many desirable characteristics, its thermo-mechanical properties have consequences for both continuous and emergency cable ratings which, in turn, have implications for system operational flexibility. In this paper,...
Crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) has been used as cable insulation since the 1960s, due to its favourable combination of electrical and mechanical properties. However, a fundamental consequence of crosslinking is limited recyclability. Although technologies are being developed to facilitate the re-use of XLPE at the end of its service life, such approaches are inferior to a fully recyclable alternative...
