Title: Improvements in or relating to electric cables
IPC: H01B7/02
Filed: 1935-12-11
Abstract: 467,179. Cables. CALLENDER'S CABLE & CONSTRUCTION CO., Ltd., BRAZIER, L. G., HAMILTON, G. M., and VINCENT, R. S. Dec. 11, 1935, Nos. 34342/35, 34343/35, 15247/36, and 30848/36. [Class 36] To prevent the formation of voids between the conductor 1, and the dielectric 3 in a cable having an impregnated paper dielectric, the interstices 8 between the conductor and the dielectric, and preferably also the interstices between the turns of the paper in the inner layers 6 of the dielectric, are filled with a tough jelly-like insulating material which adheres to the walls of the interstices and is capable of being deformed under stresses arising from normal temperature changes in the cable but possesses tenacity and internal cohesion to ensure its return to normal when such stresses are removed. The interstices 16 between the turns of the outer paper layers 9 may be filled by the tough jelly-like material or by the same liquid as used for impregnating the paper. The tough jelly-like material may consist of pure rubber, preferably in admixture with a softener such as mineral oil or stearic acid, or it may comprise natural or synthetic resins, cellulose esters or ethers, or stearine pitch, mixed with suitable plasticizers. The material may be introduced into a cable which has been impregnated in the usual manner by a grouting operation, the material. which has been temporarily softened by heat, or mastication, being forced into the cable through the interstices between the strands of the conductor or through a passage specially provided in the conductor for this purpose. The material may be allowed to solidify or harden under pressure. Alternatively the material may be introduced as a solid at a convenient stage in the manufacture of the cable and subsequently be treated with a liquid which will cause it to swell and fill the interstices between the surface of the conductor and the dielectric and preferably also those in the inner part of the dielectric. The solid material may, for instance, be inserted in stand form in the spaces, between the strands of the conductor or the spaces between the turns of the paper insulation, or the paper from which the inner dielectric layers are formed may be coated with the material. The swelling agent is preferably the mineral oil with which the paper is impregnated in which case the solid material may be rubber. In another process for introducing the jelly-like material into the cable, the lapping of the paper tapes on the cable is performed in a bath of the heated material, preferably by the machine described in Specification 182,510, [Class 36]. When the material is introduced by a grouting operation, after the cable has been provided with its lead sheath, the sheath is preferably a loose fit on the cable insulation in order to accommodate the insulating liquid displaced from the inner dielectric layers, a pressure resisting gland by which the grouting material may be introduced into the cable is described.
