Introduction
Interpretation of the core content of the standard
GB/T 31489.3-2020, as an important part of the DC transmission cable series standard, has formulated technical specifications specifically for cross-linked polyethylene insulated DC submarine cables with rated voltages of 500kV and below. This standard specifies the full process requirements from material properties to acceptance rules.
Key Technical Requirements
| Technical Dimensions | Land Cable (Part 2) | Submarine Cable (Part 3) |
|---|---|---|
| Insulation Thickness | Conventional Design | Increase 10%-15% Redundancy |
| Mechanical Protection | Steel Belt Armor | Double Steel Wire/Flat Steel Wire Armor |
| Water-blocking Structure | Longitudinal Water-blocking | Radial + Longitudinal Composite Water-blocking |
Insulation material performance indicators
The standard specifies two types of cross-linked polyethylene insulation materials:
- DC-XLPE-70: 70℃ long-term operating temperature, 180℃ short-circuit tolerance
- DC-XLPE-90: 90℃ long-term operating temperature, 250℃ short-circuit tolerance
Key performance requirements include:
- Power frequency breakdown strength ≥30kV/mm
- DC breakdown strength ≥100kV/mm
- Thermal extension permanent deformation ≤10%
Implementation suggestions
- Material selection: DC-XLPE-90 insulation material should be given priority in submarine environment
- Structural design: Double steel wire armor structure is recommended for 500kV cables
- Test verification: Space charge test and long-term water tightness test must be carried out
