In order to reduce the sheath circulating current, same arrangement and balanced length of cable are required for the underground cable system. But practically, changing the whole arrange of cable which is already constructed is impossible. Therefore, It is necessary to apply the restraining-unit of sheath circulating current at the cross-bonding wire of insulated joint because the impedance of restraining-unit is able to reduce sheath circulating current at a normal condition. Even at a transient state, the restraining-unit must maintain electrical and mechanical characteristics. In this paper, the features of restraining-unit developed by LG Cable as well as the electrical test results are described. It proves that the restraining-unit is applicable to the underground cable system where sheath circulating current rises.
