Patent ID: 7135639

Claim:
Insulating tapes for insulating an electrical conductor comprising: an inner conductive layer; an outer conductive layer; and a slip layer located between said inner conductive layer and said outer conductive layer, wherein said slip layer comprises a non-stick material coated porous glass tape, and wherein said slip layers allows for a difference of movement between said inner conductive layer and said outer conductive layer without damage to said insulating tape; and a conductive interweave interwoven with said slip layer; wherein the porosity of said slip layer is sufficient to allow an impregnation of a resin through said slip layer to said inner conductive layer; wherein said slip layer is wrapped around said electrical conductor in an overlapping manner that allows said conductive interweave wrapped similarly to said slip layer to maintain contact between said inner conductive layer and said outer conductive layer through the width of said conductive interweave.
