HD 605 S3 Power Cables - Additional Test Methods

HD 605 S3 Power Cables - Additional Test Methods

In HD 605 S3 standard designed by the European Electrotechnical Standardization Committee (CENELEC), for testing polymeric insulated and sheathed electrical cables with rated voltage up to (inclusive) 20,8/36 kV, to be applied in public distribution systems and power generating facilities and substations. test methods are described.

HD 605 S3 Power Cables - Additional Test Methods

The test methods described in this standard are considered in addition to already harmonized standards. For example, this standard is used to test the cable types specified in the following standards:

  • IEC 60332-1 Series of tests on electrical and fiber optic cables under fire conditions
  • EN 60811 Electrical and fiber optic cables - Series of test methods for non-metallic materials
  • HD 603 Cables - Distribution cables with rated voltage 0.6/1 kV
  • HD 604 Cables - Special fire performance power cables used in power stations - Rated voltages of 0,6/1 kV and 1,9/3,3 kV
  • HD 620 Cables - Distribution cables with extruded insulation - Rated voltages from 3,6/6 (7,2) kV to 20,8/36 (42) kV
  • HD 622 Cables - Special fire performance power cables used in power stations - Rated voltages from 3,6/6 (7,2) kV to 20,8/36 (42) kV (inclusive)
  • HD 626 Cables - Overhead distribution cables - Rated voltage Uo/U(Um):0,6/1 (1,2) kV
  • HD 627 Cables - Multi-core and multi-pair - Installed underground and above ground

In any case, the HDs (compliance standards) provide supplementary information necessary for the practical application of each specific type . However, these standards are not considered sufficient for carrying out and evaluating tests on electrical cables. The exact test conditions, such as temperatures, durations, and test requirements, are not specified in these standards. Such data necessary for carrying out the tests is provided in specific sections.

Our organization also provides additional testing services for electrical cables within the scope of HD 605 S3 standard, with its trained and expert staff and advanced technological equipment, among the numerous test, measurement, analysis and evaluation studies it provides for businesses in various sectors.
