FOREWORD This Indian Standard was adopted Power Cables Sectional Committee
by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft finalized by had been approved by the Electrotechnical Division Council.
This standard specifies the requirement of Polyethylene/crosslinked polyethylene insulated cables with aluminium conductors twisted over a central bare/Insulated aluminium alloy messenger wire for use as overhead distribution feeders for rated voltages up to and including 1 100 V. Many countries are now increasingly using cables with insulated conductor This system is commonly called ABC system ( Aerial Bunched Cables ).
In the ABC system, the insulated conductors ( 3 or 4 numbers as required ) are twisted around a high strength aluminium alloy bearer wire, which carries the main weight and also serves as the earth-cumneutral wire. The bearer wire ( messenger ) may be bare or insulated. The phase conductors are not under tension. The system is very safe and LT faults are practically eliminated Consequently, interruptions of supply are minimized and the life of transformers is considerably increased as these are not subjected to frequent faults as happens with the bare conductors. The problem of tree clearance is also minimized. For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the final value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test, shall be rounded off in accordance places with IS 2 : 1960 $Rules for rounding off numerical values ( revised )‘. The number of significant retained in the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in thts standard.

definitions, in addition to those given (Part 32) : 1993 shall apply.
3.1 Routine Tests
1.1 This slaudard covers the requiremruts 01 insulated polyethylenc/c~rossli~~ked polyethyleur cables with aluminium conductors twisted over a central bare/insulated aluminium alloy messenger wire for use as overhead distribution feeders.
Tests made by the manufacturers on all finished cable leugths to demoustrate the integrity of the cables. 3.2 Type Test Tests required to be made before supply OII a geueral commercial basis ou a type of cable in order to demonstrate satisfactory performance characteristics to meet the intended application.
1.2 The cables covered in this standard are suitable for use on three phase ac (earthed or unearthed) system for rated voltage up to and including 1 100 V. NOTE-The cables conforming to this standard may be operated continuously at a power frequency voltage 10 percent higher than the rated voltage.
NOTEThese tests are of such a nature that after they have been made, they need nothe repeated unless changes are made in the cable materials or design which might change the performance characteristics.
1.3 The cables covered in this standard are suitable for use where the combination of ambient temperature and temperature rise due to load, including temperature ou exposure to direct smllight results in conductor temperature not exceeding the following: TyVe of lnsrtl~~tion
