4 Voltage designations and materials
4.1 Rated voltages
The rated voltages U0/U(Um) of the cables considered in this part are 0.6//1(1.2)kV and 1.8/3(3.6)kV.
Note: The voltages given above are the correct designations although in some countries other designations are used, e.g. 1.7/3kV or 1.9/3.3kV instead of 1.8/3kV.
In the voltage designation of cables U0/U(Um):
——U0 is the rated power frequency voltage between conductor and earth or metal screen for which the cable is designed;
——U is the rated power frequency voltage between conductors for which the cable is designed;
——Um is the maximum value of the "highest system voltage'' for which the equipment may be used (see GB/T 156).
The rated voltage of the cable shall be suitable for the operating conditions in the system in which the cable is used. To facilitate the selection of the cable, systems are divided into three categories:
