29、IEEE Std 1120-2004 Planning, Design, Installation and Repair of Submarine Power Cable Systems IEEE Guide for the Planning, Design, Installation, and Repair of Submarine Power Cable Systems 1. Overview 1.1 Scope This guide provides a list of factors to consider when planning, designing, permitting, i
30、nstalling, commissioning, and repairing submarine power cable systems. While many factors are common to both power and communication cables, this guide focuses on power cables that cross seas, lakes, and rivers. 1.2 Purpose The purpose of this guide is to assist engineers in developing knowledge and
31、 to assure that important items are not overlooked when dealing with submarine cable systems. 1.3 Preface Submarine cables are installed in unique environments using specialized installation techniques. Some uncommon characteristics that may be encountered include: A variety of environmental conditi
32、ons, including the transitions between water and land Challenges in gathering geophysical information High installation and retrieval stresses on the cable A potentially hostile marine environment during construction and repair Human activities that do not normally threaten land cables Even with the
33、se constraints, submarine cables have successfully served the industry since the 1890s. They sometimes offer a means of delivering energy and communications in a direct route that may provide superior system benefits and higher reliability, and sometimes they cost less than other alternatives.

All rights reserved. 1IEEE Std 1120-2004 Planning, Design, Installation and Repair of Submarine Power Cable Systems This guide is broken into a number of clauses that roughly follow the milestones that a submarine cable project goes through. The milestones are commonly not sequential
35、; for example, information will have to be gathered so the route can be evaluated, but one must have chosen a prospective route before a survey can be done. 2. Route selection A number of factors must be considered when evaluating potential cable routes. Most of these factors influence the cost, con
36、structability, reliability, and reparability of the proposed cable system, and they should be weighed along with the electrical benefits to the power system. 2.1 Natural marine conditions Below is a list of naturally occurring marine conditions that may influence the evaluation of a prospective subm
37、arine cable route. Some of these conditions may vary considerably along the cable route, so an observation at one location may not represent the entire route. 2.1.1 Water depth As the depth increases, cable-laying tensions will increase, which may influence the design of the cable and the installati
38、on method. Route surveys may also be more difficult. 2.1.2 Rock and pinnacles Laying a cable over a sharp object may kink the cable. Where the cable is suspended between two points on the sea bottom, it may fatigue due to strumming (vortex-shedding vibration) induced by water currents. Where cable t
39、ouches down, it may abrade on the bottom, especially if the bottom is hard. 2.1.3 Tidal, current, or surf action Currents may carry silt or gravel that may abrade the cable. Strong tidal currents may wash the cable back and forth across the bottom, thus damaging it. 2.1.4 Shifting bottoms/scour The
40、soil under the cable may wash out, leaving the cable suspended and under high tension. Alternatively, the cable may become deeply buried (which will affect its ampacity and its ability to be retrieved). 2.1.5 Soil structural stability The soil composition and consistency affect the stability of the
41、walls of cable trenches. The presence of large boulders, rock outcroppings, and reefs can impede the trenching, plowing, and jetting operations. 2.1.6 Marine slope stability Underwater landslides can damage a cable system. 2.1.7 Icebergs and pack ice Icebergs being moved by the wind, river current,
42、or tidal current can scour away soil and damage cables. Icebergs moving ashore can pound on cables in the subtidal and tidal zone. Copyright 2005 IEEE. All rights reserved. 2IEEE Std 1120-2004 Planning, Design, Installation and Repair of Submarine Power Cable Systems 2.1.8 Soil thermal properties So
43、il thermal properties influence the cable design in terms of conductor size and operating temperature. Sediments with high amounts of organic material, oil contamination, or volcanic ash typically have high thermal resistivity. When cables are buried in soft mud by jetting, the sediment composition
44、and its thermal properties may be altered. 2.1.9 Chemical attack/corrosion Corrosive properties of some soils, or from gas emanation, may affect the cable design. 2.1.10 Sub-bottom material The material below the surface may be entirely different than the surface material. Rock outcrops may lie just
45、 below the surface. 2.1.11 Very soft soils If the bottom is very soft, the cables may continue to sink into the bottom after they are laid, causing them to be overstressed due to catenary tension. Excessive cable sinking also increases its external thermal resistance, and hence the operating conduct
46、or temperature. 2.1.12 Marine borers Some marine organisms may burrow into the cable. 2.1.13 Storm action Wave action from storms may result in beach erosion or filling. 2.2 Man-made obstacles It is common to encounter manmade obstacles in the proposed submarine cable corridor, which may include: Ot
47、her power, communication, submarine cables and petroleum pipelines. Joint installation projects, or integrating power and communications into the same cable, may reduce hazards. Pipelines, including sewer, water, and gas lines Effluent outfalls Sunken ships and debris, especially near docks and brid
48、ges Piers, docks, boat ramps, roadways, foundations, buildings, etc. These may be abandoned and not visible from the surface of the water.

The damage may be caused by: Dragging anchors and tug boat lines Beached marine equipment Dock and bridge maintenance Dredging Dumped debris Fishing activity Shellfish harvesting Aquatic farming Pile driving Horizontal directional drilling Other cable or pipe laying operations Maintenance work on adj
