Abstract: The normal operational characteristics of power cables are a crucial foundation for developing their protection devices. To analyze the current and voltage characteristics of parallel cable lines, the parameter matrix of the phase-aligned parallel cable lines is first established based on Carson's formula. The metal sheath is treated as a general line, considering its self-inductance and mutual inductance with the core loop, and its sheath circulating current is calculated. Then, the relationship between line voltage and current is established, and the effect of the sheath circulating current is equivalently incorporated into the line's phase impedance matrix. A π-type equivalent circuit of the cable line is established, from which the operational parameters of the phase-aligned parallel cables are calculated. Indicators measuring the operational characteristics of phase-aligned parallel operation—sheath circulating current, imbalance, carrying capacity, and voltage deviation—are introduced, and the optimal arrangement is determined using the analytic hierarchy process. This study integrates Carson's formula for impedance modeling and fuzzy AHP for multi-criteria optimization, addressing gaps in single-indicator approaches. The proposed method identifies the three-phase vertical layout as optimal, improving ampacity by 10% and reducing sheath circulating current by 28%, offering direct guidance for 500 kV cable projects.
