r: conductor radius.
R: Outside radius of insulation or inside radiusof sheath.
V: potential difference between conductor and
sheath (Operating voltage of cable).Dielectric Strength: Maximum voltage that
dielectric can withstand before it breakdown.

Emax = E at x = r
= V/(r.lnR/r)
Emin= E at x = R
= V/(R.lnR/r)
For a given V and R, there is a conductorradius that gives the minimum stress at the
conductor surface. In order to get the
smallest value of Emax:
dEmax/dr =0.0
ln(R/r)=1 R/r=e=2.718

Insulation thickness is:
R-r = 1.718 r
Emax= V/r (as: ln(R/r)=1)
Where r is the optimum conductor radius
that satisfies (R/r=2.718)

a- Emax
= V/(r.lnR/r) = 27.17 kV/cm
Emin= V/(R.lnR/r) = 10.87 kV/cm
b- Optimum conductor radius r is:R/r = 2.718

Grading of Cables p.414
Grading of cables means the distribution of
dielectric stress such that the difference
between the maximum and minimum electric
stress is reduced. Therefore, the cable of the
same size could be operated at higher voltages
or for the same operating voltage,
a cable of relatively small size could be used.

1. Capacitance Grading p.414
This method involves the use of two or more
layers of dielectrics having differentpermittivities, those with higher permittivitybeing near the conductor.
Ex=q/(2 o.r .x)
The permittivity can be varied with radius x suchthat (ideal case):
r= k/x
Then Ex=q/(2 o. k)Exis constant throughout the thickness ofinsulation.

In the figure shown
At x=r Emax1=q/(2 o. 1r)At x=r1 Emax2=q/(2 o. 2r1)
At x=r2 Emax3=q/(2 o. 3r2)
If all the three dielectrics are operated at thesame maximum electric stress
(Emax1=Emax2=Emax3=Emax) , then:
(1/ 1r) = (1/ 2r1) = (1/ 3r2)1r = 2r1= 3r2, get r1 , r2

In this method only one dielectric is used but the
dielectric is separated into two or more layers by
thin metallic intersheaths.
Emax1= (V-V1)/(r. ln(r1/r))
Emax2= (V1V2)/(r1. ln(r2/r1))
Emax3= V2/(r2.ln(R/r2))
For the same maximum electric strength:
(r1/r) =(r2/r1) =(R/r2) =
R/r = 3
Then: (V-V1)/(r.ln ) =(V1-V2)/(r1.ln )=(V2/r2.ln )
(V-V1)/r =(V1-V2)/r1= V2/r2

If the cable does not have any intersheath,
the maximum stress is:Emax= V/(r.ln(R/r)) = V/(3r.ln )
The intersheath radius can be found from
R/r = 3(r1/r) =(r2/r1) =(R/r2) =
The voltages V1, V2can be found from:
(V-V1)/r =(V1-V2)/r1= V2/r2Emax/Emaxwithout intersheath=3/(1+ +

b- Intersheath Grading
1- Damage of intersheaths during laying operation.
2- The charging current that flows through the
intersheath for long cables result in overheating.
3- The setting of proper voltages of intersheaths.

Example
A single core cable for 53.8 kV has a conductor of
2cm diameter and sheath of inside diameter 5.3
cm. It is required to have two intersheaths so
that stress varies between the same maximumand minimum values in three layers of dielectric.
Find the positions of intersheaths, maximum
and minimum stress and voltages on the
intersheaths. Also, find the maximum and
minimum stress if the intersheaths are not used.

Ich= V/Xc= .C.V = 2f.C.V
It is observed that as cable length andoperating voltage increase, Capacitance (c)
and the charging current will be increase.
So, it is not recommended to transmit powerfor a long distance using underground cables
(Overvoltage problems)
Charging Current

32/55
The charging current and the capacitance are
relatively greater for insulated cables than in
O.H.T Lines because of closer spacing and the
higher dielectric constant of the insulation of
the cables. The charging current is negligible for
O.H circuits at distribution voltage (Short Lines).
Since C= 2 /ln(R/r) and Ich= .C.V

Since = 90- dand < 0.5ofor most cables.
Here Cos d should be very small under alloperating conditions.
If it is large, the power loss is large and the
insulation temperature rises. The rise intemperature causes a rise in power lossin the dielectric which again results in additionaltemperature rise. If the temperature continues
to increase, the cable insulation will bedamaged.
