IEEE Recommended Practice for Marine Cable for Use on Shipboard and Fixed or Floating Facilities
Also Known As: IEEE Std 1580-2010
The IEEE 1580-2010 standard is a recommended practice for marine cables used on shipboard and fixed or floating facilities. It provides requirements for single or multiconductor cables, with or without metal armor and/or jacket, with voltage ratings ranging from 300 V to 35 kV.
The standard applies to cables that are intended to be installed on marine vessels, as well as fixed and floating offshore facilities. It emphasizes compliance with industry installation standards and regulations set by the authorities having jurisdiction (AHJ).
The scope of the standard includes recommendations for good engineering practices regarding the reliability and durability of the cables. It aims to ensure the use of the latest developments in marine cable materials and performance enhancements, improving the overall quality and performance of the cables in marine environments.
