About This Item
P48/D6, Dec 2018 is a technical standard covering current cable terminations used on shielded cables with laminated insulation rated 2.5 kV through 765 kV or extruded insulation rated 2.5 kV through 500 kV. It is relevant to power, energy, and engineered-material applications where termination design affects electrical performance, installation consistency, and service reliability. As an inactive document, it remains useful for reference when reviewing legacy specifications, equipment designs, or procurement records tied to shielded cable systems.
About P48/D6, Dec 2018
P48/D6, Dec 2018 addresses the technical characteristics of current cable terminations for shielded cables, with attention to both laminated and extruded insulation constructions. In this context, the standard helps define how termination arrangements are identified, selected, or assessed for voltage-rated cable systems. Its scope is closely tied to electrical components and dielectric performance, making it relevant to design documentation, product comparison, and engineering review where termination compatibility and operating rating are important.
Where is P48/D6, Dec 2018 used?
This standard is typically used in high-voltage power cable projects, substation cable installations, utility transmission work, and related engineering workflows that involve shielded cable terminations. It may also support specification writing and equipment procurement for assemblies that must match insulation type and voltage class. Because the title distinguishes laminated and extruded insulation ratings, it is especially useful when selecting termination solutions for cables used in demanding power distribution and energy infrastructure applications.
Importance in practice
In practice, P48/D6, Dec 2018 helps bring consistency to the way cable terminations are defined and evaluated for shielded high-voltage cables. That matters for compliance, engineering control, and risk reduction because improper termination selection can affect insulation integrity, system performance, and long-term reliability. For technical teams, the standard can also support clearer procurement decisions, more consistent testing expectations, and better alignment between cable construction and termination design.
