25、62-1:1955andBS2562-2:1959combined has been prepared under the direction of the Power Electrical Engineering Standards Committee. It supersedes BS2562-1:1955 andBS2562-2:1959which are therefore withdrawn. As with the previous edition it is the intention that cable boxes which comply with the requirem
26、ents of this standard produced by different manufacturers shall be interchangeable. To assist replacements dimensions of certain components are specified. This standard is the metric version of BS2562-1:1955andBS2562-2:1959. The tolerances on dimensions at that time of publication were expected to b
27、e those of normal manufacturing practice, although this was not explicitly stated. The metric dimensions in this revision take this former practice into account. The metric dimensions given are such that cable boxes to the revised standard are interchangeable with those manufactured to the imperial
28、dimensions of the previous edition. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summa
29、ry of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pagesi toiv, pages1to62, an inside back cover and a back cover. This standard has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorporated. This will be indicated in the amendment table on the inside front co
30、ver.BS2562:1979 BSI 06-1999 1 Section 1. General 1 Scope This British Standard specifies requirements for cable boxes in which the cores of cables terminate within the box and are connected to terminals fixed therein. The boxes are intended for the termination of impregnated-paper-insulated solid-ty
31、pe lead or aluminium sheathed cables having copper or aluminium conductors and for the termination of extruded insulated and sheathed unarmoured cables having copper or aluminium conductors. The boxes are suitable for operating indoors or outdoors under conditions of ambient temperature, loading, al
32、titude, etc., envisaged by BS171. The standard box is arranged for cables approaching vertically from below and is not bi-directional. Where cables approach vertically from above, alternative parts are required (seeFigure 28). Details of the range of boxes are given in Table 3 to Table 11. The objec
33、tives of this standard are to specify standard envelope dimensions and fixing dimensions of cable boxes to achieve interchangeability whatever type of filling medium is to be used, and also to specify dimensions of components, e.g.bushings, glands, for interchangeability of such parts. The boxes are
34、 suitable for rated voltages up to36kV and currents up to2 500A. This standard does not purport to specify complete details of design and construction but some observations on these aspects are given in clause7. NOTEThis standard does not apply to boxes where the cable cores pass through to the tran
35、sformer without a joint or are joined to cable tails in the box by sleeves or thimbles. Section2 and 3 deal with design principles, general considerations and tests for a range of cable boxes up to and including36kV rated voltage. Section4 specifies the essential dimensions and component details for
36、 the range of cable boxes. Appendix A lists the information to be given with enquiry and order. Appendix B specifies wiping glands for metallic sheathed cables. 2 References The titles of the standards publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover. 3 Definitions For t
37、he purposes of this British Standard the following definitions apply. 3.1 cable box (Generally referred to in the text as a box.) a metallic box designed for the purposes of receiving and protecting the end of a cable or cables, and containing a suitable insulating medium where necessary so that the
38、 dielectric of the cable may be effectively sealed against the ingress of moisture a cable box may be arranged for one or more cables of either single or multicore construction and is complete with the requisite number of glands to provide entry for the cable or cables, and the necessary fittings to
39、 afford the connection between the cables and the terminals of the transformer NOTE 1An unfilled box is a box having air as the insulating medium. NOTE 2Boxes are defined by the numbers of poles and glands. 3.2 open-backed cable box a cable box generally as defined in3.1 except that the bushing asse
40、mblies defined in3.3 and3.4 or3.5, as appropriate, are detachable 3.3 bushing a structure carrying one or more conductors through a partition such as a wall or tank and insulating it therefrom, including the means of attachment (flange or other fixing device) to the partition. The conductor may be a
41、n integral part of the bushing or be drawn into the central tube of the bushing 3.4 bushing mounting plate a plate in which the bushings between the cable box and the transformer are mounted. It may be an integral part of the box or it may be a separate plate secured to the transformer tank by screw
42、ed studs which can also serve to secure an open-backed box shell 3.5 cast resin bushing assembly a bushing assembly, employing cast resin instead of porcelain as the insulating medium NOTEThe bushing assembly may be: a) a bushing only, as referred to in the note to11.1; b) a combined bushing and mou
43、nting plate, for one or more poles, cast as a single unit.BS2562:1979 2 BSI 06-1999 3.6 cable box shell the casing of a box, including the bushing mounting plate and the gland plate, but excluding the bushings, cable glands and armour clamps 3.7 open-backed cable box shell a cable box shell supplied
