New Method in Improving Power Transmission Capacity of Cable
As known that now the cable tunnels transmission is insufficient and there exists too much loss in transmission. In order to solve the problems, three types of cables are introduced and analyzed; the characteristics of these cables and types of grounding are discussed. According to the need of large load, a long-term plan is proposed in the study, the problems in power cable tunnels and the advantages of high temperature superconductor (HTS) cable are also analyzed. The feasibility of HTS cable application and the characteristics of high voltage direct current (HVDC) are introduced, through the comparison of the HVDC Light cable and the cross linked polyethylene (XLPE) cable, the advantages of HVDC light application in transmission system are also presented.
