The cables are bonded at one end.
The PGCC is installed in vancant conduit of HDD paralleling to the phase conductors as depicted below
Since the cable length of this section

m
SM2 212.57
is signeficantly shorter than
SM2
<
SM12 320.47
the cable length of item 1 above
SM12
Therefore, the calculated induced sheath voltage of this cable section is lower.
No calculation is done for this cable section.

As the single major section of cross-bonding cable having the sheath earthed at both ends, the returning current
circulates in the path formed by the three sheaths and the ground and divides equally between three sheath circuits
Considering the longest minor section, the voltage between sheaths at cross-bonding points can be calculated as
follows;

For all cases, the maximum sheath voltage induced during single to ground fault current flow through cable is

4. Insulation of Cable Outer Sheath (Jacket)

The maximum sheath voltage induced during three phase short circuit current is 4,002 V. In order to
determined the insulation level of outer sheath of cable, IEC std 60502-1 could be used. The power frequency
withstand voltage of a 2.8 mm PVC sheath thickness for 3.6 kV cable, 800 sq.mm. is 6.5 kV (refer to pages 27 &
49 respectively) The insulation level of PE is superier to PVC.
So the insulation level of the 3.5 mm thickness of PE outer sheath for 115 kV power cable is higher than
3.5mm
6.5kV 8.125 kV
The outer sheath of cable can withstand the maximum induced sheath voltage.
2.8mm

5. Selection of Sheath Voltage Limiter

The induced volatge in cable sheaths at the cross-bonding points is high during fault external to the cable circuit.
The Sheath Voltage Limiter (SVL) shall be installed to connected between the cable sheath and the earth with
separated limiter as per diagram in FIGURE 1.
The basic design criterion for selection of cable sheath voltage limiter in case using of non-linear resistance surge
arrester, is to keep sheath overvoltage as low as practical.
However, the maximum continuous operating voltage (MCOV) of surge arrester shall be high enough to withstand the
50 Hz overvoltages resulting from system faults external to cable circuit [IEEE 575-2014].
The maximum sheath voltage induced from the maximum allowable 3-phase fault current external to the cable circuit is
4002. The IEEE Std C62.22- 1991 recommendation is a minimum margin of protection greater than or equal to 20%.
So, the MCOV of the surge arrester shall be not less than = 4002 1.2 4802.4 Select the surge arrester is
Ur = 6 kV, 10 kA
MCOV = 5.1 kV
