Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of cable structures, in particular to a longitudinal water-blocking and water-tree-resistant medium-voltage cable insulation core. Background Art
[0002] With the vigorous development of my country's power construction, medium-voltage cross-linked cables have been widely used. With the construction of green energy, wind and photovoltaic power generation have developed rapidly. The number of photovoltaic power generation projects with complementary fisheries and photovoltaics in lake areas and wind power projects on the coast and islands has also increased. This has put forward higher requirements on the waterproof and water-blocking properties of cables and the anti-water tree performance of cable insulation.
[0003] Cross-linked power cables in photovoltaic projects in lake areas and wind power projects on the seaside and lakeside are mostly laid by direct burial, on water bridges or on underwater buoys. Water vapor and moisture can easily invade the interior of the cable through the cable terminals and damaged parts. If the conductor does not have a good water-blocking structure, water vapor will slowly penetrate into the cable. In high humidity and high electric field conditions, the cable will quickly produce insulating water trees. When the water trees grow to a certain extent, the insulation layer will be punctured.
[0004] Traditional medium-voltage cross-linked power cables utilize a circular, compressed monofilament structure with gaps between the individual filaments. This results in a maximum conductor compression coefficient of approximately 0.9. In very humid environments, moisture can easily enter terminals and damaged cable areas, and then penetrate the conductors through gaps in the conductors. The conventional cross-linked polyethylene insulation in medium-voltage cross-linked cables rapidly develops water trees under the influence of moisture and electric fields, causing insulation degradation. After a certain period of time and when the water trees reach a certain level, the cable insulation can be broken down. Some cables utilize polyethylene sheaths with inner and outer layers for waterproofing, but these only provide radial waterproofing and have little effect on insulation degradation caused by water ingress to the terminals. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a longitudinal water-blocking and water-resistant tree-type medium-voltage cable insulation core to solve the problems of low longitudinal water-blocking performance and low insulation performance of the conductor, so as to improve the safety and reliability of power cable operation in a humid environment.
[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a longitudinally water-blocking and water-tree-resistant medium-voltage cable insulated core, which includes a conductor and a co-extruded insulation layer from the inside to the outside, wherein the conductor includes a central circular monofilament and a tile-shaped monofilament layer composed of a plurality of tile-shaped monofilaments arranged around the central circular monofilament, and a water-blocking layer is arranged between the circular monofilament and the tile-shaped monofilament layer.
[0007] As a further improvement of the above technical solution:
[0008] The plurality of tile-shaped monofilament layers and the water-blocking layers are cross-distributed.
[0009] The water-blocking layer includes a water-blocking paste layer and a semi-conductive water-blocking tape layer.
[0010] The insulating shielding layer includes an anti-water tree conductor shielding layer, an anti-water tree insulation layer and an anti-water tree insulation shielding layer. The co-extruded insulation layer is formed by co-extruding and dry-crosslinking three layers of anti-water tree semi-conductive conductor shielding material, anti-water tree insulation material and anti-water tree semi-conductive insulation shielding material.
[0011] The thickness of the water-blocking layer between the tile-shaped monofilament layer and the central circular monofilament is 0.1-0.3 mm.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0013] The utility model discloses a longitudinally water-blocking and water-tree-resistant medium-voltage cable insulated core. In the conductor structure design, in addition to the central monofilament, tile-shaped monofilaments are used instead of round monofilaments. By twisting, the monofilaments are embedded in each other and compressed to a certain extent, eliminating the gaps between the monofilaments. The conductor compression coefficient is increased from the original 0.9 to over 0.95. During the conductor twisting process, each layer is coated with waterproof paste and longitudinally wrapped with semi-conductive water-resistant tape, which can completely prevent water vapor from penetrating inward along the conductor gaps, further improving the conductor's water-blocking performance. It can fully meet the water permeability test in the standard. The conductor is wrapped with a layer of semi-conductive water-resistant tape and then three layers are co-extruded, dry-crosslinked, and extruded to form a water-tree-resistant conductor shield, insulation, and insulation shielding material. This can effectively extend the formation time of insulating water trees and improve the insulation performance and service life of the cable. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

For example, "connected" can mean a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will be able to understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0020] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0021] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the longitudinal water-blocking and water-resistant tree-type medium-voltage cable core of this embodiment comprises, from the inside out, a conductor 1, a co-extruded insulation layer 2, a multi-layer tile-shaped monofilament layer 12, and a water-blocking layer 13 interlaced therewith. The water-blocking layer 13 comprises a water-blocking paste layer 131 and a semi-conductive water-resistant tape layer 132.
[0022] Conductor 1 comprises a central circular monofilament 11 and a tile-shaped monofilament layer 12 composed of several tile-shaped monofilaments arranged around the central circular monofilament 11. A water-blocking layer 13 is disposed between the central circular monofilament 11 and the tile-shaped monofilament layer 12. The conductor comprises a single circular monofilament at the center of the conductor, serving as the central circular monofilament 11. Multiple tile-shaped monofilaments are arranged in layers, one above the other, and then twisted and compacted in layers to form a circular, compacted conductor. The tile-shaped monofilaments are interwoven, and each layer is further compacted in layers, minimizing gaps between the individual filaments. This results in a conductor compaction coefficient greater than 0.95. By reducing the twist-in pitch-to-diameter ratio, the conductor's bending properties are fully guaranteed. During the twisting process, each layer of conductor is evenly coated with a waterproof paste and longitudinally wrapped with a semi-conductive waterproof tape, effectively preventing moisture from penetrating through the gaps between the individual filaments, forming a water-blocking conductor. The water-blocking layer 13 between the tile-shaped monofilament layer 12 and the central circular monofilament 11 has a thickness of 0.1-0.3 mm.
[0023] The co-extruded insulation layer 2 includes a water-tree-resistant conductor shielding layer 21, a water-tree-resistant insulation layer 22, and a water-tree-resistant insulation shielding layer 23. The co-extruded insulation layer 2 is formed by co-extruding and dry-crosslinking three layers of water-tree-resistant semiconductive conductor shielding material, water-tree-resistant insulation material, and water-tree-resistant semiconductive insulation shielding material. This effectively prolongs the formation of water trees in the insulation, reduces water tree aging, and improves the insulation performance and service life of the cable.
