1.3.12. Permissible continuous currents for cables with voltage up to 35 kV with insulation from impregnated cable paper in a lead, aluminum or PVC sheath are taken in accordance with the permissible temperatures of the cable cores:
Rated voltage, kV |
Until 3 |

Permissible cable core temperature, oС |
+80 |
+65 |
+60 |
+50 |
1.3.13. For cables laid in the ground, the permissible continuous currents are given in Table. 1.3.13, 1.3.16, 1.3.19-1.3.22. They are taken from the calculation of laying in a trench at a depth of 0,7 - 1,0 m no more than one cable at an earth temperature of + 15º C and an earth resistivity of 120 cm K / W. When the earth resistivity differs from 120 cm K / W, it is necessary to apply the correction factors indicated in the table to the current loads indicated in the tables mentioned earlier. 1.3.23.

1.3.14. For cables laid in water, the permissible continuous currents are given in Table. 1.3.14, 1.3.17, 1.3.21, 1.3.22. They are taken from the calculation of the water temperature + 15 º C. 1.3.15. For cables laid in the air, inside and outside buildings, with any number of cables and an air temperature of + 25 º C, the allowable continuous currents are given in Table. 1.3.15, 1.3.18 - 1.3.22, 1.3.24, 1.3.25. 1.3.16. Permissible continuous currents for single cables laid in pipes in the ground should be taken as for the same cables laid in air at a temperature equal to the temperature of the earth. Table 1.3.24.

* The numerator indicates the currents for cables located in the same plane with a clear distance of 35 - 125 mm, and the denominator - for cables located closely in a triangle.
1.3.17. With mixed cable laying, the permissible continuous currents should be taken for the section of the route with the worst cooling conditions, if its length is more than 10 m. It is recommended to use cable inserts of a larger cross section in these cases.
1.3.18. When laying several cables in the ground (including laying in pipes), the permissible continuous currents must be reduced by introducing the coefficients given in Table. 1.3.26. This does not include redundant cables. Laying several cables in the ground with distances between them of less than 10 mm in the clear is not recommended.
1.3.19. For oil- and gas-filled single-core armored cables, as well as other cables of new designs, permissible long-term currents are set by manufacturers.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens
02.05.2024
In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers.

Advanced Infrared Microscope
02.05.2024
Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>
Air trap for insects
01.05.2024
Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>
Random news from the Archive Pocket Photo Printer
15.10.2002
The American company SiPix has released a pocket photo printer. By connecting a digital camera to the printer, you can immediately print the pictures accumulated in its memory about the size of a pocket calendar or smaller, for example, a document.
The dimensions of the printer itself are slightly larger than a pack of cigarettes, weight without batteries is 300 grams. Printing one picture takes about 95 seconds. True, those who have tested the new device say that the battery consumption is high, but if you print several pictures, you can use the AC adapter.
