This part of IEC 60092 is applicable to shipboard and offshore power cables with extruded solid insulation, conductor and core screening, having a voltage rating of one of the following: 3,6/6 (7,2) kV,6/10 (12) kV, 8,7/15 (17,5) kV, 12/20 (24) kV, 18/30 (36) kV.

NOTE 1 Subclause 4.1 gives more details.

The cables are intended for fixed installations.

The various types of power cables are given in 5.1. The constructional requirements and test methods are aligned with those indicated in IEC 60092-350, unless otherwise specified in this document.

The object of this document is:

– to standardize cables whose safety and reliability is ensured when they are installed in accordance with the requirements of IEC 60092-352 or IEC 61892-4;

– to lay down standard manufacturing requirements and characteristics of such cables directly or indirectly bearing on safety;

– to specify test methods for checking conformity with those requirements.

NOTE 2 Only radial field cables are covered.
