PROVISION OF A METALLIC SCREEN IN PLASTIC-SHEATHED CABLES
Year: 1988
Abstract: General
The screening effect produced by the metal screen of a cable mainly depends on:
The frequency of the induced e.m.f. The limitation of this e.m.f. mains frequency (16 2/3 Hz, 50 Hz, 60 Hz) is therefore a determining factor in the choice of a cable from the standpoint of safety of staff and installations. On the other hand, the screening factor at higher frequencies should also be taken into account in seeking to protect equipment against interference. A substantial reduction of the induced e.m.f. at the mains frequency may suffice for complete protection;
The level of induced e.m.f. per unit length in the case of screens made by ferromagnetic material. The screening effect of such a cable is optimum for a given value of induced e.m.f. per unit length, so that a cable designed for the reduction of high induced e.m.f. per unit length may be of no practical use for protection against low induced e.m.f. per unit length. The composition of the screen must be adapted to the level of the induced e.m.f. per unit length;
The quality of its earthing. The screening effect is determined by the value of the current circulating in the metal screen. The resistance of the parts ensuring current flow between screen and earth is therefore decisive. For cables with an insulating plastic outer covering, if earth connections are provided only at the ends, they must be of very low resistance: the sheath should preferably be earthed at intervals along the line. When the plastic outer covering is conductive, the sheath is in practice continuously earthed;
The length of the induced section of the link to be protected. It is easier to improve the screening effect when this section is long. The concept of length in this case relates to the quality of earthing required.
