With the help of Cableizer, you can prevent problems by calculating the maximum allowable pulling tension for any installation. You can easily model the cable route with sections, slopes, bends...

Considerations for cable laying
Considerations for cable laying

Posted on 2018-02-27
The service reliability of a cable systems depends not only on the quality of the cable itself, but also to a large extent on the methods used and the care taken in laying the cable. In this blog...

Cyclic loading with daily, weekly, and yearly load factors

Posted on 2016-08-16
Using the Neher McGrath method for the calculation of the rating of buried cables under cyclic loading conditions allows for a daily, weekly, and yearly load factor in the same calculation.

Variation of spacing between sheath bonding points
Variation of spacing between sheath bonding points

Posted on 2016-07-03
For single-core cable circuits with sheaths solidly bonded at both ends and possibly at intermediate points, the circulating currents and the resulting losses increase as the spacing increases,...

Magnetic field with phase splitting
Magnetic field with phase splitting

Posted on 2016-06-26
Phase splitting can be used to drastically reduce the magnetic fields of buried power cables. Also, the conductor cross-section can be less than half because the current is only half per split...
