Transmission cable

The dielectric strength of an insulator is the electric field strength at which it physically breaks down and begins to conduct electricity. High values are required when the material will experience high electrical stresses, such as those found in the insulation surrounding power transmission cables. Dielectric strength decreases as temperature and humidity increase. It also decreases with time, due to the creation of conductive paths on the surface of the material. [Pg.184]

Copper is second only to silver as an excellent conductor of electricity. This factor and its availability made it essential for the expansion of modern technologies. It was, and stiU is, a desired metal for wires to carry electricity, but the rapid expansion of modern communications would require more copper than could be made economically available. The solution has been to use optical fiberglass transmission cables as a substitute for copper wire. In addition, and even more important, is the recent explosive growth of wireless transmission as a substitute for copper wire in the communication industries. [Pg.113]

Superconductivity The ability of a material to act as a conductor for electricity without the gradual loss of electricity over distance (due to resistance) that is normally associated with electric transmission. There are two types of superconductivity. Low-temperature superconductivity (LTS) requires that transmission cable be cooled to -418 degrees Fahrenheit. Even newer technologies are creating a so-called high-temperature superconductivity... [Pg.27]

For example, American Superconductor (ASC) of Westborough, Massachusetts, in conjunction with Pirelli Cable of Milan, Italy, has produced a prototype, high-temperature superconducting wire that exceeds the current-carrying threshold required for commercial underground power transmission cables. [Pg.789]
