Abstract :
This work is intended for showing the fatigue endurance limits of generally used cables, how such limits were found, the applicability, the comparison and the results with field evaluations. The values of the limits assumed for the IEEE, the EPRI and the CIGRE are shown, in addition to the experience of the companies with the application of such limits.
