Product Scope
HTS cables can be configured in several ways using the same materials and production processes. The most efficient and high-performing
configuration for the medium-voltage (MV) up to 72 kV is the HTS Triax™ design. nkt cables also has experience in coaxial single-phase
cables which are suitable for higher voltages. The HTS cable conductors can also be supplied with a conventional warm PE insulation.
nkt cables continually develops the voltage rating and the performance within the product scope described in the following table. nkt cables
offers cable conductors made from the 1st generation Bi2Sr2Ca2Cu3OX superconductors, while also working on integrating the new 2nd generation superconductors based on Y(RE)Ba2Cu3OX materials into these cable designs.“

Product Scope
nkt cables sells and installs the HTS Terminations and joints. We can also specify and source the cooling system as well as the monitoring
system.
Joints
A 15 kV HTS Triax™ joint is 3 m long with an
outer diameter of 31 cm. It contains the joints
of all three phases and a common screen.

Terminations
A 15 kV HTS Triax™ termination is 3.9 m
long. The main body is installed at a height
that gives the appropriate safety distance to
the top bolts. The picture shows an outdoor
version of the termination. nkt cables will
convert this termionation to an indoor version
on customer request.
