Patent ID: 7927141

Claim:
An electrical shielding arrangement of a high-voltage line, comprising: a first coupling element and at least one second corresponding coupling element disposed to be pushed into one another; each of said first and second coupling elements having a tubular control electrode around a line leadthrough; a tubular insulating barrier connected to and sheathing each said tubular control electrode; at least one of said tubular insulating barriers is not connected to the respective said control electrode in an area of overlap and said tubular control electrode and said tubular insulating barrier have a changed diameter; the diameters of said tubular insulating barriers of said first and second coupling elements are matched to one another such that said tubular insulating barriers overlap and mechanically tension one another upon being pushed into one another, said tubular insulating barriers together with an additional barrier being configured to form a barrier system surrounding the area of overlap and an insulating fluid circulating within said barrier system.
