In the fully supported LV ABC system tension is shared equally by all four conductors. This has distinct advantages, one obvious benefit being higher working and operating tensions.

Low Voltage Aerial Bundled Cables AS/NZS 3560 specifies the requirements of Aerial Bundled Cables with XLPE insulation for use up to 0.6/1kV. It is a result of considerable deliberation among supply authorities and manufacturers seeking to improve on the overseas standard, and features unique tests to verify superior field service performance.

Note Reactance and voltage drop are based on three cables laid in flat formation spaced 0.46m apart. The values can also be applied to three-phase circuits with cables in trefoil formation. Continuous current ratings are based on an ambient temperature of 40°C, maximum conductor temperature of 80°C and solar radiation intensity of 1000W/m 2. Fault current ratings are based on initial and final conductor temperatures of 80°C and 210°C respectively.

Note Continuous current ratings are based on an ambient temperature of 40°C, maximum

conductor temperature of 90°C and solar radiation intensity of 1000W/m 2. Fault current

conductor temperature of 90°C and solar radiation intensity of 1000W/m 2 with screens

ratings are based on an initial conductor temperature of 90°C and final conductor

solidly bonded at both ends. Fault current ratings are based on an initial screen temperature

temperature of 250°C.
