    All Direlectric Self Support (ADSS) Cable

    Application

    The “All Dielectric Self-supporting (ADSS)” cable is designed for aerial self supporting application at short, medium and long span distances. ADSS cable offers a rapid and economical means for deployment by cable television operators, telephone companies and power utilities. It is adopted for high voltage, middle, small span conditions in Power Transmission System or mazy terrain such as river spanning, mountains.

    Description

    The cable consists of 5 to 36 fibers containing tubes or fillers stranded in up to 3 layers around a central strength member and bound under a PE jacket. Each tube contains 6 -12 fi bers. All the fibers in the cores are filled with water blocking gel. Fillers may be used to preserve the cable geometry. A water swelling tape is helically wrapped around the cable core. Aramid yarns are helically laid to supply peripheral strengthening of the cable. The outer jacket is tightly bounded over the aramid yarn layer. The cable jacket incorporates an optional inner polyethylene jacket and an outer polyethylene or AT (anti-tracking) jacket. When the induction on cable surface is above 12KV, anti-tracking sheath material (AT) will be applied. With AT outer jacket, the maximum electric field strength at operating point can reach 35KV. For long span application, a double jacket design can be considered. An optional ripcord can be put under the jacket layer to facilitate its removal.
