1.1IntroductionThe company was originally established in 1996 under the name of BICC Egypt as a joint venture between BICC Cables UK and Egyptian investors. It was the only multinational cable manufacturer in Egypt.In September 2010, General Cable, a Fortune of 500 company and the leading manufacturer of wires and cables with 38 production facilities around the world, acquired BICC and rebranded it to General Cable.In May 2016, as part of its strategy to refocus on the American and European markets, General Cable sold the factory to a group of investors. The company gained its original brand name BICC Cables.

BICC Cables has the management and technical support, enabling it to manufacture cables to the highest internationalstandardsachievingthreemajorbenefitstothecablemarkettotalquality,technicalexcellence,and customer satisfaction.

XLPEInsulation Cross linked polyethylene ( XLPE ) type GP 8 as per BS 7655 and IEC 60502 requirements. XLPEmatchesmanyoftheattributesofPVC,althoughitisnotflameretardant,butgoesastageortwofurther. The good qualities of polyethylene are retained but at high temperatures the toughness and physical properties are improved. In particular, there is greatly enhanced resistance to deformation. Having superior thermal and mechanical properties compared with PVC, the XLPE also has higher insulation resistance, enabling its thickness to be reduced, leading to corresponding reduction in the overall diameter andweightofafinishedcable.The main comparative consideration however, is that XLPE permits the operating temperature of cables to be raised substantially without suffering thermal deformation or degradation.

3.7ArmourArmour is necessary to protect the conductors from mechanical damage.Armour may be provided for using:-Steeltape(STA) Double steel tape of thickness 0.2 or 0.5 is applied helically over bedding. Steelwire(SWA) one layer of round wires is applied helically over the bedding. Steel wire with hard drawn tinned copper wire to increase conductivity. For single core cables used for AC. purposes, it is not recommended to use magnetic armoured cables, since the eddy current will affect the cable, so if armouring is essential, Aluminumwire(AWA) can be used as a cable armour .

Note!Under short circuit conditions, steel tape armour has high earth fault loop impedance, so the steel wire armour can carry more short circuit current.

3.8OversheathPVC The standard sheath of all cables is an extruded layer of blackPVC, the external surface ofwhich isembossed with voltage, rating and cable size. Normally the over sheath PVC grade meets the requirements of BS 7655. Other grades can be used dependent upon customer requirements e.g. PVC sheath withanti-termitepropertiescanbeprovidedwhenspecified.

Ordinary PVC is intrinsically flame retardant and all cables described in this publication meet the requirementsofIEC60332part1“Testsonelectriccablesunderfireconditionsonasingleverticalinsulatedwire or cable”.

All the cables described in this publication can be used outdoors, but some reservations are necessary concerning cables without a metal sheath for direct burial e.g. ●Unarmouredcablesarenotrecommendedforlayingdirectintheground.●Cables for layingdirectly in thegroundparticularly insustainedwetconditionsshouldhaveextruded bedding. ●Forinstallationwherethereiswaterlogging,orwhereitislikelytooccur,adviceshouldbeobtained from our technical department.

Otherimportantfactorstobetakenintoaccountare:

4.1SheathDamageCare should be taken to ensure that the oversheath is not damaged during installation. This is especially important where aluminium armour is used since ingress of moisture could lead to corrosion and loss of earth continuity.

4.2MinimumBendingRadiusCables should not be bent during installation to a radius smaller than that recommended below. Wherever possible larger radii as should be used.

4.3ConnectorsFor PVC compression or soldered connectors may be used. For XLPE insulated cables, it is recommended to use compression type connectors since the use of soldered connectorswouldlimitthemaximumshortcircuittemperatureofthecableto160OC, and consequently reducethefinalshortcircuitcurrentbyapproximately30%.

4.4OverheadTerminationsUltra Violet resistant sleeving or taping should be provided on PVC insulated cores to avoid degradation duetoexposuretosunlight.

5.1SourceofDataThemaximumsustainedcurrent rating (AC) forcopperandaluminiumconductorcablesgiven forPVCinsulated cables, in this publication are based, where applicable, on ERA report 69-30 Part Ill (Sustained Current Ratings for PVC Insulated cables).

For XLPE insulated cables, the current rating in this publication are derived from the latest issue of ERA report no. 69-30 part 5, which is based upon IEC 287.

All other current ratings have to be calculated by agreed formula and methods in IEC 287 and/or the IEE wiring regulations 18th Edition (BS 7671).Current rating or unrmoured cables are based on IEC Publication 364-5-523 (1983) and IEE WiringRegulations 18th Edition.

In the case of single core cables, ratings for various installation conditions have been given. Where the cables are armoured, these are based on the assumption that the non-magnetic armour will be solidly bonded at both ends of the cable run. It should be noted that Regulation 521-02 of the 18th Edition o the IEE Wiring Regulation prohibits the use of single core cables with steel wire on AC systems.

All the current ratings given in data tables are or single circuits, thermally independent of other circuits or any other heat source and on the basis of the standard conditions of installation given. Forotherambientorgroundtemperatures,depthoflayingandsoilfactorsgivenindatatables.

5.2InstallationEnvironmentThere are three main installation conditions that affect the current rating of a cable and these are: 1. Cables laid directly in the ground. 2. Cables laid in ducts. 3. Cables laid in free air.

Current ratings for PVC and XLPE insulated cables are listed in the relevant tables in data tables and refer to standard conditions of installation, for single circuits, as detailed in ERA report 96.30 part 3 and part 5, for ground and duct installation. For installation in air, values are relevant to IEE wiring regulations(18th Edition).

For other ambient or ground temperatures, change in depth of laying, soil thermal resistivity or number of grouping cables, the current rating must be multiplied by relevant rating factors Listed in data tables.

5.3IEEWiringRegulation18thedition-RequirementforCablesThe IEE wiring regulations for installation and selection of cables cannot be approached in isolation from the other equipment in the installation. In particular the devices providing protection against overload, short circuit and shock by indirect contact and overheating of protective conductors during an earth fault affect the selection of cables. For guidance and assistance, some of the IEE Wiring regulations requirements for cables are giving below:

5.3.1ProtectionagainstOverloadCurrent,lEEWiringRegulation433The two requirements which determine the sustained current rating required are: (i) The current rating of the cable should not be less than the nominal current or current setting of thedevice providing protection against overload current which in turn should not be less than the circuit current.(ii) The overload protection should operate at not more than 1.45 times the current rating of the cable.

The second requirement (ii) is metifthefirst(i)issatisfiedwhentheprotectivedeviceisanyofthestandardfusesormaincircuitbreakers(MCB)mentionedintheregulation,exceptrewirabletypesoffusetoBS 3036. With fuses to BS 3036 the current ratings of the cable should not be less than 1.38 times the fuse rating to satisfy (ii).

5.3.2Protectionagainstshortcircuit,IEEwiringRegulation434The cable has to have adequate short circuit capacity for the current let through by the device providing shortcircuitprotectionforthetimeitwillflow.

The formula in section 434-03-03 is that used cable makers to give the short circuit ratings in their publication.

If the device providing protection against short circuit is the same as that providing protection against overload and, therefore, has a rating not higher than the rating of the cables, the short circuit capacity of the cable will automatically be adequate, there is no need to check.

5.3.3Protectionagainstindirectcontactbyinterruptionofsupply,IEEWiringRegulation413Protectionagainstshockduetocontactwithexposedconductivepartsofequipmentduringafaulttoearthisdeemedtobeprovidedifdisconnectionduetoflowofthefaultcurrentthroughtheprotectivedevicewilloccur, either: Within0.4secondsforfinalcircuitssupplyingsocketoutletsorwithin5secondsforfinalcircuitssupplyingfixedequipment.Regulation 413 gives values of earth fault loop impedance which satisfy these conditions when the standard types of protective device are used.

For most of the cables the armour is still adequate when the fuse rating is one or two steps, or even more, above the current rating of the cable, the range being greater or the small sizes and 4 core cables than for the larger sizes and two cores cable.

6.0VOLTAGEDROPVoltage drop is normally only of importance for cables of voltage rating 0.6/1 KV or below. If the insulation is to be in compliance with regulation 525 of the 18th Edition of the IEE wiring regulations, it is stipulated thatthevoltagedropwithintheinstallationshouldnotexceedavalueappropriatetothesafefunctioningoftheassociatedequipmentinnormalservice.Therequirementisdeemedtobesatisfiedifthevoltagebetweentheoriginoftheinstallation(usuallysupplyterminals)andthefixedcurrentusingequipmentdoesnotexceed4%ofthenominalvoltageonthesupply,disregardingstartingconditions.(Note Diversity can be taken into account when calculating the voltage drop).

Since the actual power factor of the load is often not known, the most practical approach to the question of voltage drop is to assume the worst conditions, i.e. where the phase angle of the load is equal to that of the cable. The voltage drop values in the tables have been based on this assumption. For conductor sizes up toandincluding120mm2thefiguresprovidedapplythiswithsufficientaccuracywherethepowerfactorliesbetween0.6laggingand1.0andforlargecableswherethepowerfactoroftheloaddoesnotexceed0.8 lagging.

When cables are subjected to temperatures higher than those permissible for continuous operation they may suffer damage. Therefore, in installation, where there is a possibility of the cables being overloaded by mistake or accident, cables should be selected having regard to the characteristics of the device used orprotectionagainstexcesscurrent,sothattheeffectsofoverloadingarelimitedtoadegreetolerableorarelatively short period of operation.

7.3ShortCircuitRating-ArmourPVC&XLPEInsulatedCablesThe ratings given in the table below are based on fault duration of one second and an armour temperature rise from 60 OC (PVC) and 80 OC(XLPE)atcommencementofthefaulttoafinaltemperatureof160OC (PVC) and 250 OC (XLPE).For other time periods, divide the tabulated for the short circuit current rating by the square root of the time in seconds.The asymmetrical fault rating of the smaller sizes may be decided by the short circuit capability of the conductor rather than the armour rating. It is therefore necessary to compare the two ratings.

8.0CABLERATINGFACTORS

Forthecurrentratingslistedinthemaintextofthisguidethevalueslistedpertaintocertaininstallationconditions.Shouldyourparticularinstallationenvironmentdifferfromthosedefinedinthecurrentratingitnecessary to utilize the following tables and employ the rating factors listed.There are three main installation categories:1. Cables laid directly in ground.2. Cables laid in ducts.3. Cables installed in air.Within each of these categories there are a series of rating factors for installation that may need to be considered.

8.1CableslaiddirectlyingroundFor Cables laid directly in ground the following four Rating Factors may need to be considered:Rating Factors for Ground Temperature (Table 8.1.1).Rating Factors for Soil Thermal Resistivity (Table 8.1.2).Rating Factors for Depth (Table 8.1.3).Rating Factors for Cables Grouping (Table 8.1.4 & 8.1.5).

The current rating for cables installed directly in the ground are based on values of soil temperature and soil thermal resistivity which are generally representative of conditions in Egypt. Rating factors that take account of variation in ground temperatures are given in table 8.1.1.

Table8.1.1RatingfactorsforGroundTemperature

Where conditions of operation can be more accurately estimated and knowledge of the soil along the route is available, it is possible to determine the ratings more precisely by the use of soil thermal resistivity factors, factors for depth, and grouping factors.(seeTables8.1.2;8.1.3;8.1.4;8.1.5).

InERAreport69-30PartIII,thetypesofloadareclassifiedunderthreeheadings:- Type A Cables carrying a constant load throughout the year.-TypeBCablescarryingvaryingloads,maximuminsummerperiod.-TypeCCablescarryingvaryingloads,maximuminwinterperiod.

With a knowledge of the type of load to be imposed on the cables it is then possible to determine the soil thermal resistivity along the cable route in accordance with recommendations in ERA Report 69-30.

10.1AllAluminumConductors(AAC)

All -aluminium conductor are the most favored type for use in the construction of relatively short span distribution schemes and are in common use on lines for voltage up to 60 kV.

Another frequent application for all Aluminium Conductors is in flexible busbar connections.

Although Aluminum to copper connections can be made, it is better to use aluminium conductors for service connections, as various forms of covered cable available for this purpose.

The data sheets show the most common sizes of conductor but other sizes, to any recognized standards or customer can also be supplied.

AAC insulated with XLPE or PVC can also be supplied as per customers, requirements

10.2AluminumConductorsSteelReinforced(ACSR)

Construction

The mixed construction of ACSR makes it a very flexible medium from design point of view. By varying the relative proportion of aluminum And steel, the ideal conductor for any particular application can be produced generally, ACSR consists of a galvanized steel core of 1 wire, 7 wires or 19 wires surrounding by concentric layers of aluminum wire. When a conductor with a high current carrying capacity and comparativelyLow strength required, special construction are available with a high aluminum content

Protection against corrosion

A coating of non- oxidizing grease is normally applied to steel cores of all conductors, in addition to the protection offered by the galvanizing of the steel wires. One or more layers of the aluminum wires can,if required, be supplied partially or fully greased.BICC Cables ensures complete freedom from contamination by other metals during the entire manufacture of ACSR conductors.
