VERTITECK HVTECK
®

TRXLPE/Tape Shield/PVC/GSIA/PVC, Power, Shielded, Armored
15kV, CSA HVTECK, 100% Ins. Level, 175 Mils, Three Conductor
Features:

Product Construction
Conductor:

• Rated at 90˚C wet or dry
• The jacket under the armor (inner jacket) is
designed with longitudinal raised ribs. The armor
is then applied and bites into these ribs to provide
a solidly locked construction. This feature enables
the cable to be self-supporting (core will not slip)
during vertical installation when cable weight is
supported by the copper conductors
• Lighter than mine shaft cable with conventional
steel wire armor (SWA)
• More flexible than SWA cables resulting in easier
handling during installation
• Terminations and connections to electrical
cabinets are similar to standard TECK90 cables
• Meets cold bend and impact tests at -40˚C

Overall Jacket:

• 2 AWG thru 750 kcmil bare copper compact Class
B strand

Strand Shield:

• ACID-FLAME-CHECK ✓✓® flame-retardant,
moisture- and sunlight-resistant Polyvinyl Chloride
(PVC)—Red

placed longitudinally under the copper tape shield

Applications:

• For exposed and concealed wiring in dry, damp or
wet locations
• For use in ventilated, non-ventilated and laddertype cable trays in dry, damp or wet locations
• For direct earth burial (with protection as required
by inspection authority)
• For wiring in all hazardous locations when used
with certified HL Cable glands
• Cost-effective alternative to installation
in conduit
• Typical vertical installations include mine shafts,
tall commercial buildings, inclined tunnels and
vertical cable trays
(Note that the overall jacket is required for all
damp and wet locations and for all corrosive
environments: CE Code part 1 Rules 12-708 and
22-200

Ground (Bonding) Conductor:

Recommended Reel Handling Practices
How to Handle Cable Reels

YES

NO
Cradle both reel flanges between forks.

Do not lift by top flange. Cable or reel
will be damaged.

Reels can be hoisted with a shaft
extended through both flanges.

Use a spreader bar to prevent bending
the reel flanges and mashing the cable.

Place spacers under the bottom flange
and between reels to create a space to
insert the forks.

Upended heavy reels will often arrive
damaged. Refuse or receive subject to
inspection for hidden damage.

Lower reels from truck using hydraulic
gate, hoist or fork lift. LOWER CAREFULLY.

Never allow forks to touch cable surface
or reel wrap.

Always load with flanges on edge and
chock and block securely.

Never drop reels.

Phone: 888-593-3355

SPEC D025

January, 2009

Recommended Cable Handling Practices
Unloading and Moving of Reels:
Cable reels are never shipped upended (flat side down). Cable reels that arrive in this manner should be rejected
or received only after a thorough inspection for damage.
See “Recommended Reel Handling Practices” on the following pages.
Upon receipt, a cable’s protective covering and/or lagging should be inspected for evidence of damage during
shipment. If evidence of damage is found, a report should immediately be made to the carrier.
Under no circumstances should reels be dropped from the delivering vehicle to the ground.
Unloading and reel handling should be accomplished so that the equipment used does not contact the cable
surface, and in the case of protective wrap, that the equipment does not contact the protective wrap.
If unloading and reel handling is accomplished by crane, either a cradle supporting the reel flanges or a shaft
through the arbor hole should be used. If a fork lift is utilized, the forks must lift the reel at 90˚ to the flanges
and the forks must be long enough to make complete lifting contact with both flanges. Under no circumstances
should the forks come into contact with the cable surface or the protective wraps.
When a reel of cable is rolled from one point to another, care must be taken to see that there are no objects on
the surface area which could contact or damage the cable surface or protective wrap.
If an inclined ramp is used for unloading, the ramp must be wide enough to contact both flanges completely.
The stopping of the reels at the bottom shall be accomplished by using the reel flanges and not the surface of
the cable.

SPEC D050

January, 2008

Recommended Cable Storage Practices
Storage and Storage Maintenance:
Finished cables have no established shelf-life. Moisture and atmospheric conditions can cause exposed conductors to oxidize and discolor. Uncovered/unsheltered cable will degrade due to exposure to direct sunlight and/or
the elements. If the cables are protected, there should be no degradation of the insulation.
In general, any cable for use indoors should be stored indoors. Any cable suitable for installation outdoors is suitable for storage outdoors. Cables stored outdoors should have the ends sealed to prevent moisture ingress into
the cable.
Cables should be stored in a sheltered area. While on the reel, cable should be covered with Masonite or a dark
film wrap (to block the sun’s rays and shield from the elements).
Cables with a cold temperature marking i.e. –10˚C, –25˚C, or –40˚C may be stored outdoors. Cables without a
cold temperature marking must be stored indoors.
Cable reels must remain in the upright position. Cable reels must not be stored on their sides. Reels must not be
stacked.
Cable reels should be stored with the protective covering or lagging in place. If a length of cable has been cut
from the reel, the cable end should be immediately resealed to prevent the entrance of moisture. If a part length
is returned to storage, the reel’s protective covering should be restored.
Wooden reels should be stored off the ground to prevent rotting. Reels should be stored on a flat, hard surface
so that flanges do not sink into the earth. The weight of the reel and cable must be carried at all times by the reel
flanges.
Cable reels and lagging must not be stored for an extended time period sitting in direct contact with water or
dampness. Timbers or metal supports must be placed under the reel flanges to provide elevated storage of the
reels away from the direct contact with water or damp soil.
Reels should be stored in an area where construction equipment, falling or flying objects or other materials will
not contact the cable.
Cable should be stored in an area where chemicals or petroleum products will not be spilled or sprayed on the
cable.
Cable should be stored in an area away from open fires or sources of high heat.
If the reels are relocated, they should be handled as suggested in the “Recommended Reel Handling Practices”
section, and inspection made on each reel during the relocation.
If the cables are stored in a secure area and not exposed to the effects of the weather, an annual inspection
should be satisfactory.
Where the reels are exposed to the weather, a bimonthly inspection should be performed to observe any sign of
deterioration.
If the reels are exposed in a non-secure area, policing of the area at frequent intervals may be required depending on circumstances.
Records of delivery date, manufacturer, installation date, any extenuating circumstances, along with all test
reports should be kept on file.

Pre-Installation Instructions
Pre-Installation

Overview

Cable Inspection

Cabling Handling

To ensure safety during cable installation
and reliability once the cable is installed,
you should confirm the following prior to
installation:

Inspect every cable reel for damage
before accepting the shipment. Be
particularly alert for cable damage if:

• T
 he cable selected is proper for your
application

• Several reels are stacked

Remove all nails and staples from
the reel flanges before moving a reel,
and avoid all objects that could crush,
gouge or impact the cable when
moving. NEVER use the cable as a
means to move a reel.

• T
 he cable has not been damaged in
transit or storage
Review all applicable state and national
codes to verify that the cable chosen is
appropriate for the job. Also, consult your
local building authority.
Next, you must identify any existing
cable damage and prevent any further
damage from occurring. This is done
through proper cable inspection,
handling and storage.

• A reel is laying flat on its side

• Other freight is stacked on a reel
• N
 ails have been driven into reel flanges to secure shipping blocks

When unreeling, observe recommended
bending radii, use swivels to prevent
twisting and avoid overruns.

• A reel flange is damaged
• A
 cable covering is removed, stained
or damaged
• A
 cable end seal is removed or
damaged
• A
 reel has been dropped
(hidden damage likely)

Installation­—Overview and Checklist
Installation

Overview

Installation Temperature

Equipment

Most cables are subjected to more
mechanical stress during installation than
they ever experience in actual operation.
Needless to say, handling and pulling your
cable according to manufacturer’s recommendations is extremely important.

Low temperatures are a cause for
concern when installing cable. Cable
should not be installed when temperatures
are less than the cold bend temperature
rating of the cable product plus 15°C (i.e.,
minimum installation temperature = cold
bend temperature rating + 15°C). The cold
bend temperature rating is indicated on the
catalog Spec sheet.

The proper use of appropriate equipment
is crucial to a successful cable installation.
The equipment needed for most installations is detailed in the following checklist:

There are five main considerations in any
cable installation:
• Ambient temperature
• Equipment
• Conduit fill
• Mechanical fit in raceway
• Physical limitations

Prior to performing a low temperature
(less than 10°F or -12˚C) cable installation,
cable should be stored for a minimum of
24 hours at a temperature of 55°F (13˚C)
or higher.
Cable should be pulled more slowly and
trained in place the same day it is removed
from storage. Do not impact, drop, kink or
bend cable sharply in low temperatures.

Installation—Feed-In Setups

Cable Feed-In Setups (continued)

Single Sheave
Single sheaves should only be
used for GUIDING cables. Arrange
multiple blocks to maintain bending
radii whenever cable changes
direction or elevation.

For pulling around bends,
use conveyor sheave
assemblies of the
appropriate radius series.

Sheave Assembly

The pulleys must be positioned to ensure that
the effective curvature is smooth and changes
direction or elevation evenly at each pulley.
Never allow a polygon curvature to occur
(Figure 3).
The fit of a pulley around the cable is also
important when pulling heavy weights
(i.e. pulleys at the top of a vertical drop).

NEVER ALLOW
Figure 3

Remember to use the radius of the
surface over which the cable is bent,
not the outside flange diameter of
the pulley. A “10 inch” cable sheave
typically has a 10 inch outside flange
diameter with a 6 inch inside diameter
that provides an inside (bending)
radius of 3 inches.

The maximum allowable pulling tensions are for multi conductor cables pulled into a raceway or cable tray using a basket grip or similar device secured directly to the cable jacket.
It is recommended that a combination of basket grips and pulling eyes be used whenever possible.

Installation—Training and Bending Limitations

Physical Limitations Training and Bending
Overview
Training is the positioning of cable when
it is not under tension. Bending is the
positioning of cable when it is under
tension. When installing cable, the object
is to limit the mechanical forces so that
the cable’s physical and electrical
characteristics are maintained for the
expected service life. Bends in conductors,
multiconductor cables or assemblies of
conductors shall be made so that the cable
will not be damaged.

The problem is compounded by the fact
that most tapes are under jackets that
sconceal such damage. The extruded
polymers used for insulation shields have
sufficient conductivity and coverage initially
to pass acceptance testing, then fail prematurely due to corona at the shield/insulation interface.

A nonshielded cable can tolerate a sharper
bend than a shielded cable. This is
especially true for cables having helically
applied metallic shielding tapes which,
when bent too sharply, can separate or
buckle and cut into the insulation.
Remember that offsets are bends.

Installation—Maximum Sidewall Pressure
Overview

Sidewall bearing pressure (SWBP), or sidewall
loading, is the radial force exerted on a cable
being pulled around a conduit bend or sheave.
Excessive SWBP can crush a cable and is,
therefore, one of the most restrictive factors in
installations having bends and requiring high
pulling tensions. SWBP is reduced by increasing
the radius of bends.

Tension

The maximum tension that can safely be applied
to the cable during installation can be calculated
using the maximum SWBP for the cable and the
radius of the bend it is traversing.
For example, a cable having a maximum SWBP
of 300 lb/ft that is being pulled around a bend
having a radius of 2 feet should have no more
than 300 lbs/ft x 2 ft or 600 lbs tension applied
to it as the cable exits the bend.

DC “HI-POT” Pre-Test Guidelines for MV Cables
The test voltage should be increased in steps of 10kV, or minimum of 5 steps. The duration at each step should
be long enough for the current to reach a steady value (1 minute suggested). The test current will momentarily
increase for each voltage increment due to charging of the capacitance and the dielectric absorption characteristics of the insulation. Stabilized current should be recorded at each step.
The maximum test voltage should be maintained for 15 minutes (new cable, shielded) / 5 minutes (non-shielded).
Leakage current should be recorded each minute after the maximum test voltage has been reached.
Increase of leakage current at any step point may be an indication of a cable insulation problem. Failure of the
cable or cable accessories may result unless the voltage is rapidly reduced.
Otherwise, the leakage current should stabilize after about 5 minutes. Leakage current is essentially a function of
the construction and length of cable but it can be influenced by the test conditions (wind and humidity) as well as
the test apparatus (leads).
Typical leakage currents in the order of 100 – 150 microamperes or higher are not unusual. A defective installation
is identified by increasing leakage current with time, at a fixed DC voltage.
All testing should be performed by qualified personnel taking all appropriate safety precautions.

DC “HI-POT” Testing Guidelines for MV Cable
DC High Potential (HI-POT) Testing of Medium-Voltage Power Cable
Overview
This procedure is intended to provide
general guidelines for high potential
DC testing of power cables.
All tests made after cable installation
and during the guarantee period shall
be made in accordance with applicable specifications.
All safety precautions must be
observed during testing at
high voltage.
Read and understand and follow the
Operator’s Manual for the particular
test set being used!
Test Equipment
Direct current test equipment is available commercially
with a wide range of voltages.
Accessory equipment necessary
to safely conduct high voltage
tests—such as safety
barriers, rubber gloves and
nonconducting hard hats—must
be used; consult appropriate
safety officer.
Test Procedures
See IEEE Standard 400 Article
5 Direct Voltage Testing.
Acceptable procedures, although
varying slightly in technique, have
more or less been standardized
as either a “withstand test” or a
“time-leaking current test.”

Before performing any DC
over­potential tests:
• All equipment must be disconnected from the cable circuit, i.e.,
taps, motors, circuit breakers,
surge arrestors, etc. This will preclude damage to such equipment
and will prevent test interruptions
due to flashovers and/or trip-outs
resulting from excessive
leakage current.
• Establish adequate clearance
between the circuit test ends
and any grounded object, and to
other equipment not under test
(about 2.5 feet).
• Ground all circuit conductors not
under test with all cable shields
including nearby equipment.
• Consult termination manufacturers for maximum test voltage
recommendations and
time limitations.
The direct current test voltage
may be applied either continuously or in predetermined steps
to the maximum value in
accordance with applicable
specifications.
• Continuous Method – Apply test
voltage at an approximate rise
rate of 1 kV per second or 75%
of the rated current output of the
equipment, whichever is less.
Some equipment will take longer
to reach the maximum test voltage because of the amount of
charging current.
• Step Method – Apply test voltage slowly in 5 to 7 increments
of equal value to the maximum
specified. Allow sufficient time at
each stop for the leakage current
to stabilize.

Hi-Pot Testing Procedures
Normally this requires only a few
seconds unless cable circuits of
high capacitance are involved.
Record leakage current at each
step.
Maintain the test voltage at the
prescribed value for the time
designated in applicable specifications. The following times are
usually considered adequate: at
the end of the test period, set the
test set voltage control to zero,
allow the residual voltage on the
circuit to decay, then ground the
conductor just tested.
CAUTION
It should be recognized that DC
charges on cable can build up to
potentially dangerous levels if grounds
are removed too quickly. Maintain
solid grounds after the test on the
cable for at least 4 times the duration of the test. On exceptionally long
cable lengths, it may be necessary
to increase the grounding time. It
is advantageous to maintain these
grounds longer and while reconnecting circuit components.
• Acceptance Testing – After
installation and before the cable is
placed in regular service, the specified test voltage shall be applied for
15 consecutive minutes.
• Proof Testing – At any time during the period of guarantee, the
cable circuit may be removed from
service and tested at a reduced
voltage (normally 65 percent of the
original acceptance value) for 5
consecutive minutes.
• Record the leakage current at one
minute intervals for the duration
of the test time involved.

DC “HI-POT” Testing Guidelines for MV Cable
DC High Potential (HI-POT) Testing of Medium-Voltage Power Cable
Comments
The significance of conducting DC
high-voltage tests on nonshielded,
nonmetallic-sheathed cable is
dependent upon the environment
in which it is installed because the
characteristics of the return circuits
are unknown. The environment
must be carefully considered or
test results may not be significant.
In fact, these tests can result in
damage to the cable insulation.
Humidity, condensation and actual
precipitation on the surface of a
cable termination can increase
the leakage current by several
orders of magnitude. Humidity also
increases the corona current, which
indication is included in the total
leakage current. Wind prevents the
accumulation of space charges at
all bare energized terminals.
This results in an increase of
corona. It is most desirable to
reduce or eliminate corona current
at the bare metal extremities of
cable or terminations. This may be
accomplished by covering these
areas with plastic envelopes, plastic
or glass containers, plastic wrap or
suitable electrical putty.

Routine periodic DC maintenance
testing of cable for the evaluation
of the insulation strength is not a
common practice. Some power
cable users have adopted a
program of testing circuits during
planned outages, preferring
possible breakdowns during testing
rather than experiencing a service
outage. It is nearly impossible to
recommend test voltage values
for those maintenance tests with
the history of the cable circuit.
An arbitrary test voltage level
could break down a cable circuit
that would otherwise render long
trouble-free service at normal
operating AC voltage.
The main usefulness of DC
high-voltage testing is to detect
conducting particles left on the
creepage surface during splicing or
termination.
Test equipment should be supplied
from a stable, constant voltage
source. Do not use the same
source that is supplying arc welders
or other equipment causing line
voltage fluctuations. The output
voltage of the test
set must be filtered and regulated.
Consider using a portable, motordriven alter­nator to energize
test set.
The gradual decrease or nonincrease of leakage current with
respect to time at maximum test
voltage is the acceptance criteria
for DC HI-POT testing.

Testing Problems
Extra Leakage Current:
• Failure to guard against corona
• Failure to clean insulation surface
• Failure to keep cable ends dry
• Failure to provide adequate
clearance to ground
• Improper shield termination
Erratic Readings:
• Fluctuating voltage to test set
• Improper test leads
Environmental Influences:
• High relative humidity
• Dampness, dew, fog
• Wind, snow
Results vs. Cable Life
To date there is no basis for
correlation between DC test
results and cable life expectancy.

Emergency Overload Current Guidelines

The increase or decrease of the load current is not associated with an instantaneous change of the cable temperature. Hence, during emergency conditions, the cable may be overloaded for short periods of time at the maximum
overload temperature of 130°C/140°C for cable rated at 90°C/105˚C continuous.
Operations at the emergency overload temperature shall not exceed 1500 cumulative hours during the lifetime of
the cable. Lower temperature for emergency overload conditions may be required due to the type of material used
in the cable splices and terminations or environmental conditions.

Short Circuit Current Calculation Overview
The maximum short circuit current which is permitted to flow in the insulated conductor, or the metallic shielding
and bonding (grounding) components, is dependent on the duration of the short circuit and the material used in
the cable.

aluminum, XLPE and EPR insulated conductors for various periods of time. These graphs are in accordance with
ICEA publication P-32-382. The equations are based on the assumption that the duration of the short circuit is so
short that the heat generated is contained within the conductor, taking into consideration the temperature limit of
the insulation.

Short Circuit Current for Copper Shields
Formula—Short Circuit Current for Copper Shields
In the three conductor cables, a copper tape is applied over each extruded semi-conducting insulation shield with
a helical gap. Because the three copper tape shields are cabled in intimate contact with the bonding (grounding)
conductor, their combined total cross-sectional areas may be considered an integral shielding system for the purpose of calculating short circuit capacity. It is not possible however, to determine the contact resistance between
the components, due to possible oxides or film which may form on the components or movement of the cable
core during handling. It may be advisable to consider the short circuit capacity of the individual shields independently. Because the insulation shields are in thermal contact with the inner PVC jacket, the maximum short circuit
temperature T2 is 200°C. Refer to ICEA P-45-482, “Short Circuit Performance of Metallic Shields and Sheaths on
Insulated Cable,” for calculations involving cables that have other operating parameters.
