PES-ICC Accomplishments

The ICC is approaching its 50th year. Some of the key accomplishments in the recent past include:

• Monitored and guided the development of tree retardant insulations and semi-conductive materials,
• Supported the use of power cable jackets to protect cables from water and installation damage,
• Provided information on lightning arrestors and their proper installation to extend life of the distribution system,
• Updated the ampacity tables guide engineers in the selection and installation of the right cables for the job,
• Monitored and to guided the introduction of watertight, sealed conductors to prevent treeing,
• Provided information on flame retardant coatings to fire-proof non-FR cables in generating stations,
• Provided a guide for the design and application of moisture-impervious solid dielectric power cable using metal plastic laminates,
• Produced a guide on shielding for instrumentation and low voltage cables, and
• Revised the IEEE 383 cable tray flame test so it could be used more uniformly to specify FR cable.
• Developed the first comprehensive cable systems guide for the petrochemical industry, IEEE 1242, Guide for Specifying and Selecting Power, Control, and Special Purpose Cable for Petroleum and Chemical Plants.

The list is almost endless, if you include all the work the ICC has done since its beginning. Your continued involvement and support will insure another 50 years of accomplishments
