What is BS IEC 63026 - Submarine power cables about?

BS IEC 63026 is an international standard that discusses medium voltage submarine cable systems. BS IEC 63026 specifies test methods and requirements for power cable systems, cables with extruded insulation, and their accessories for fixed submarine installations, for rated voltages from 6 kV (Um = 7,2 kV) up to 60 kV (Um = 72,5 kV). The aim of BS IEC 63026 is to establish submarine power systems that exhibit structural and functional integrity. The requirements apply to armoured single-core cables and three-core cables in combination   with their accessories, terminations, and joints for usual conditions of installation and operation. BS IEC 63026 is applicable to submarine cables installed in permanently submerged conditions with water depths up to 250 m. NOTE: BS IEC 63026 does not include accesso...
