Abstract :
This paper describes the technical details of an advanced model for use in real-time cable rating systems. Real-time cable rating systems perform calculations of steady state and emergency cable ratings in real-time; several such systems have been installed to maximize asset utilization without compromising cable system reliability. An example of a complex tunnel installation, featuring four self contained fluid filled and cross-linked polyethylene cable circuits, is described in detail, highlighting key issues of relevance to real time systems.
