In power lines, the proportion of cables is gradually increasing.
Power cable lines are generally laid underground or underwater, and there is also power cable lines laid overhead. Power cable lines are mainly composed of cables, cable intermediate joints, cable terminal heads, etc. Some power cable lines also have accessories, such as pressure tanks, pressure and temperature warning devices, etc. Underground power cable lines also include corresponding civil construction facilities, such as cable trenches, pipes, shafts, tunnels, etc.
Advantages and characteristics of underground power cables:
1. Reliable operation. Because it is installed in a hidden place such as underground, it is less damaged by external forces and has less chance of failure. The power supply is safe and will not cause harm to humans;
2. Maintenance workload is small and frequent inspections are not required;
3. No need to erect towers;
4. Helps improve the power factor.
