What is the Derating factor of power cables when exposed to
direct sunlight in (both PVC & XLPE).



What is the Derating factor of power cables when exposed to direct sunlight in (both PVC & XLP..

Answer / william lobo

Generally all cables are rated for ambient temperature. Now
temperature varies from place to place and hence we have
tables showing cables in air and cables buried underground.
Then there is cables spaced between one another which is
more important aspect.
Cable current carrying capacity should also be based on our
own judgement. The table only is a guide. Its just to help
us get the correct size cable for your requirments. So all
these factors help us in deciding the best size cable for
our load. Distance is also an important consideration due
to more voltage drop.

We have 2 Nos. Transformer with the capacity of 2000KVA and 1250 KVA and currently using only one 2000KVA T/R during operational hours while non- operational hous 1250 KVA T/R also used to reduce T & D losses. Similarly, 2 capacitor bank of 500KVAR and 300 KVAR also installed to balance reactive power. Now problem is around 1000 KW load PF is not maintaning 0.99 as 350 KVAR capacitor is in healty condtion. Now the PF is maintain 0.95 to 0.96.
