Analysis on Causes of Faults in Intermediate Joints of Power Cables and Improvement of Manufacturing Processes
The intermediate joint of power cable is a weak link in the cable line,and its failure can seriously affect the reliability of power supply.By analyzing the causes of intermediate joint failures,identifying the problems in the manufacturing process,and proposing corresponding improvement measures,it is of great significance to improve the safe operation level of cable lines.This paper summarizes the common failure modes of cable intermediate joints,analyzes the prominent problems in design selection,installation and production,operation and maintenance,and proposes practical and feasible improvement measures from the aspects of optimizing joint design,standardizing construction technology,strengthening fault diagnosis,and improving operation and maintenance management.The aim is to provide reference and guidance for power supply enterprises to finely manage cable joints and reduce failure rates.
