New IEEE Standard - Superseded.
Requirements are given for single or multi-conductor cables, with or without metal armor and/or jacket, and rated 300 V to 35 kV, intended to be installed aboard marine vessels, fixed and floating offshore facilities, and in accordance with industry installation standards and the regulations of the authorities having jurisdiction (AHJ).
The scope of this recommended practice is the design, construction, and properties to comply with the special needs of cables used in Marine Shipboard applications. The recommended practice will cover marine cable constructions and applications for the installation of cable on Shipboard and Fixed or Floating Platforms. This recommended practice is needed for cable manufacturer's to comply with the special needs of cables used in Marine applications involving electric apparatus for lighting, signaling, communication, power, and propulsion.
The recommended practice will cover marine cable requirements and the required properties of various cable materials. It is intended for marine designers and cable manufacturers. Marine cable where materials and properties are changing rapidly can be handled in a more timely basis by covering marine cable in an individual recommended practice.
