Abstract

PURPOSE:To increase the dielectric withstand strength of a power cable so as to make it adaptable to a high voltage with a large capacity and improved water tree proof by providing the circumference of a conductor with an insulator made of amorphours polyolefine to improve the water-tree resistant characteristics with the electrical characteristics being maintained at the same as or not less than before. CONSTITUTION:An internal semiconductor layer (1mm thick) 2 and an amorphours polyolefine insulator (2mm thick) 3 are provided on a copper conductor 1 (cross-sectional area of 250mm<2>) having the outer diameter of 19mmphi by simultaneous extrusion of three layers with use of semiconductive composite and amorphours polyolefine ZEONEZ280. Then, an external semiconductive layer (1mm thick) 4 is provided on the insulator 3, and then an envelope (2mm thick) 5 is formed thereon with extrusion of soft polyvinyl chloride. The water-tree proof characteristics may be greatly improved as compared with a conventional insulated cable of cross-linked polyethylene by using amorphours polyolefine as an insulating material. The electrical characteristics are maintained at the same as or not less than before, and particularly the dielectric withstand strength is greatly increased thereby to make the power cable adaptable to a high voltage with a large capacity.
