Test requirements for accessories for use on power cables of rated voltage from 3,6/6(7,2) kV up to 20,8/36(42) kV - Part 3: Transition joints between cables with impregnated paper insulation and cables with extruded insulation; German version HD 629.3 S1:2024
Prüfanforderungen für Kabelgarnituren für Starkstromkabel mit einer Nennspannung von 3,6/6(7,2) kV bis 20,8/36(42) kV - Teil 3: Übergangsmuffen für Kabel mit massegetränkter Papierisolierung und für Kabel mit extrudierter Kunststoffisolierung; Deutsche Fassung HD 629.3 S1:2024
Overview
This document specifies performance requirements for type tests for transition joints for use between extruded insulated power cables as specified in HD 620 and impregnated paper insulated power cables as specified in HD 621 or other relevant standard. Accessories for special applications such as submarine cables, ships cables or hazardous situations (explosive environments, fire resistant cables or seismic conditions) are not included. The standard differs from DIN VDE 0278-629-2 (VDE 0278-629-2):2009-07 as follows: a) Part 3 of this standard has been revised and contains all requirements for type tests for transition joints for use between extruded insulated power cables and impregnated paper insulated power cables from Part 2 of DIN VDE 0278-629 (VDE 0278-629); b) update of normative references; c) complete editorial revision. Typical applications for the accessories covered in this document are transition joints and branch-off transition sleeves of all types that are suitable for laying in the ground or in the air.
