At first do correct your spelling mistakes which indicates
that how much you are either inclined towards reading books
or chatting etc!
----------------------------
I am giving a detailed explanations of this. 1 Sq mm means
area of the conductor only. But it has its own insulation
thickness around it. If it is a sheathed/unsheathed cable
then accordingly it has nominal thickness of sheath added
and the overal max permissible dia of cable can be found
out. It has its detailed calculations. I am giving ex for 1
Sqmm Single Core Cable.
Unsheathed Cable: Nominal Conductor Area:-1 Sqmm, Nominal
Thickness of insulation:-THn=0.6mm, Max Overal Dia:- 2.7mm.
Max Current Carrying Cap:- 11A.
Soln:- Conductor Dia: PI*D*D/4 = 1
=>D= 1.128mm;
Overal Cable Dia= D+ 2*THn = (1.128+2*0.6)= 2.328. Now
10-15% of flexibility due to air inside the cable is added
with it which is equal to: 2.328+ 15% of 2.328= 2.6778 ~ 2.7mm.
Sheathed Cable: Nominal Conductor Area:-1 Sqmm, Nominal
Thickness of insulation:-THn=0.6mm, Nominal Thickness of
Sheath THSn=0.9,Max Overal Dia:- 4.8mm. Max Current Carrying
Cap:- 11A.(Same as unsheathed)
Soln:- Conductor Dia: PI*D*D/4 = 1
=>D= 1.128mm;
Overal Cable Dia= D+ 2*THn+ 2*THSn= (1.128+2*0.6+2*0.9)=
4.128. Now 10-15% of flexibility due to air inside the cable
is added with it which is equal to: 4.128+ 15% of 4.128=
4.7422 ~ 4.8mm.

L.A. (Lightening Arrester) is located at a place from where transmission line enters the transmitting substation. So L.A. (Lightening Arrester) is the first equipments which has to encounter with lightening, high voltage surges and switching surges. It has to absorb energy of lightening, high voltage surges, and switching surges. L.A. (Lightening Arrester) is made up of layers of semiconductors. If these layers can not tolerate energy released by lightening, high voltage surges, and switching surges the L.A. (Lightening Arrester) blasts.
