About Cable High Voltage
Cable High Voltage is a cable product from Electrotechnik that is designed for high voltage applications. It provides insulation, conductivity, and durability so that it can effectively transmit electricity in demanding environments. This cable is suitable for use in power distribution, industrial plants, and renewable energy systems. It is manufactured to meet rigorous safety standards, ensuring reliable performance even under extreme conditions. Key capabilities: high insulation resistance temperature stability corrosion resistance flexibility UV protection Best for: electrical engineers and contractors that need reliable high voltage cabling solutions.
Cable High Voltage (Cable HV) from Electrotechnik is a specialist cable-rating and ampacity calculator for designers working with medium- and high-voltage power cables. Its core purpose is to model custom cable constructions and compute steady-state and transient current ratings across AC and DC systems using industry methods (IEC 60287, IEC 60853 and Neher–McGrath) — with validation against recent CIGRE guidance. The package targets utilities, OEMs, contractors and consultants who need precise, site-specific ampacity data rather than generic tabulated values. The product exposes a purpose-built Cable Editor that walks users through layer-by-layer cable construction (conductor, shields, insulation, bedding, armour, sheath, etc.) and installation parameters (air/buried/in-duct, soil resistivity, ambient temperatures). The editor uses guided forms, previews and stepwise inputs so modelling a custom cable is largely form-driven rather than freehand, which shortens the onboarding curve for engineers familiar with cable datasheets. Electrotechnik supplements the UI with comprehensive tutorial PDFs and a public tutorial/video playlist to help users model complex constructions and validate results.
Pros & Cons

- Validates results against CIGRE Technical Brochures for accuracy.
- Flexible licensing allows for multiple users per license.
- Competitive pricing compared to major competitors like CYMCAP.
- The Standard edition requires add-on modules for advanced features.
- No equations are included in the generated reports.
- May not be as widely established as older competitors.
- Requires a paid license for full functionality.
- Requires knowledge of technical standards for proper use.
Features
Key features
This feature allows for the most accurate current rating calculations by going beyond the limitations of standard IEC methods, including modeling multiple zones of soil with different thermal resistivity.
Users can easily build custom cable models based on their specific construction details or use a database of pre-built cables, offering great flexibility for unique projects.
The software provides instant results for changes in installation parameters, which saves a significant amount of time by eliminating the need to re-run calculations.
It provides advanced calculations for soil drying, including multiple circuits and installations in backfill, which is crucial for accurate ratings in buried cable scenarios.
The software generates detailed, easy-to-understand reports in both PDF and Microsoft Excel formats, with the option to add a company logo.
It supports a wide range of installation methods, including in air, in groups, direct buried, in ducts, in backfill, unfilled troughs, ventilated tunnels, and submarine installations.
Additional features
Calculates derating for multiple cable circuits or heat pipes crossing at various angles.
Provides ratings for cables installed in bundles in cable trays.
Automatically calculates positive, negative, and zero-sequence impedances.
Calculates armour loss to CIGRE TB 908.
Offers ratings for high-voltage DC cables.
Supports calculations for cables installed in water, partially buried, or fully buried.
A highly accurate method for complex installations, including multiple backfills and different soil zones.
A user-friendly interface for building custom cable models.
Generates detailed reports in PDF and Microsoft Excel formats.
Supports both metric and imperial units.
