Definitions

  • the present invention in general relates to a termination assembly for three-phase high voltage submarine cables, and in particular to splitting of power cables subsea into two or more cables.
  • Wind turbines may be combined with wave turbines in one park. Collecting the electric power from several sources is one of the challenges that are facing wind and wave power production at sea.
  • the prior art solution to this problem is to terminate all the interconnection cables inside a windmill or other local installation above the sea level. This implies that several cables must connect to one installation like a windmill.
  • a termination assembly for three-phase high voltage submarine cables comprising a water-tight enclosure with at least one cable lead-in located at one side of the enclosure, at least three termination units within said enclosure for receiving three cable phase conductors, respectively, and lifting means located on the enclosure at an opposite side in relation to said lead-in(s).
  • T-connectors being configured substantially in the shape of a "T".
  • T-connector supplied by Euromold® a Nexans company.
  • Such T-connectors are used with great advantage in the present termination assembly, since their plug-in functionality makes possible relatively easy replacement or addition of cable connections that may be required in the offshore installations and operations concerned.
  • Maximum voltage levels may be for example up to 36kV.
  • cables 1a and 1c may belong to a main cable for supplying produced electric energy from a number of windmills, to consumers onshore. Cable 1b in this example would then be the one connected to a windmill in the system. What is done at this point in the system is to electrically connect each phase of the three-phase cable 1b to each corresponding phase of cable(s) 1a and 1c. This takes place inside a water-tight enclosure 10 shown in fig. 1 (and fig. 2 ). Before entering enclosure 10 cables 1a-c are each surrounded by a bend stiffener 2a-c, respectively, according to known methods. Moreover, lead-in means 3a-c for sealed entry of each cable into the enclosure are provided, also as known per se.
  • T-connectors 21-23 Inside the enclosure 10 there are three groups of T-connectors 21-23, 24-26 and 27-29, respectively, supported by a bracket 19.
  • T-connectors 21-23 are shown more detailed in fig. 2 , i.e. for one (corresponding) phase 11a, 11b and 11c from respective cables 1a-c.
  • the similar arrangements are provided for connecting the other two cable phases by means of groups 24-26 and 27-29, respectively, of T-connectors.
  • T-connectors 21, 22 and 23 are directly attached to one another by plugging together at their upper or transverse legs with a through-running electrically conductive path comprising conducting elements 34 and 35.
  • conductors 31, 32 and 33 belonging to cable phases 11a, 11b and 11c, respectively, are connected together.
  • fig. 1 there is shown one phase 13a from cable 1a, being extended to T-connector 27 in the third or rear group of T-connectors.
  • the central or main leg 45 is indicated for T-connector 21, with all other T-connectors having the same kind of central leg, all such central legs being oriented vertically as shown in the drawings. This of course does not mean that in actual service this orientation is normal. It is to be noted also that in the embodiment shown in fig. 1 , the axial direction of power of cables 1a-c, as well as the bend stiffeners 2a-c is generally the same as for the above central or main legs 45. In actual practice this is a very advantage arrangement, facilitating the assembling operations as well as any repair or changes to be made during the lifetime of the termination assembly.
  • Lead-ins 3a-c are provided at one end or sidewall 16 of enclosure 10.
  • the opposite end or side wall is denoted 17.
  • lifting means in the form of an eye structure 100 making possible deployment as well as retrieval of the whole assembly with power cables 1a-c connected thereto. It will be understood that depending on water depth at the site of installation, there may be a quite considerable weight to be carried by lifting eye 100 during such operations.
  • fig. 1 illustrates the important case of three electric power cables 1a-c interconnected within enclosure 10
  • the general concept of this invention is also applicable, for example when only two three-phase high voltage submarine cables are to be connected to one another (in a simple joint), whereby it may be sufficient to provide two cable lead-ins and six T-connectors within the enclosure.
  • a still more simplified arrangement is illustrated in fig. 3 , where a single phase of cable 1x is connected to T-connector 20 with a similar kind of central leg 45 as in the above embodiment, and with two transverse legs 26 and 27, to serve only as a termination and insulation of cable 1x.
  • a common cylindrical housing 41 of insulating material and insulating plugs 42 as well as rubber caps 43 provide for the required insulation and termination.
  • This embodiment is particularly useful for testing purposes, which may be a quite important operation during installation of submarine cables. For this purpose it may be sufficient to have just one cable lead-in and three termination units or T-connectors for testing of a three-phase high voltage submarine cable.
