Dynamic Cable Ratings BPP Renewables use a new class of hybrid analytical finite element methods for fast dynamic-rate analysis of complex seabed and cable protection system geometries. This enables good decision making based on realistic cable electrical loadings. Optimising dynamic cable ratings can significantly reduce cable costs. Let BPP give you the analysis and performance […]
