Various embodiments may include a solid insulation material, e.g. in tape form, the use thereof in a vacuum impregnation process, and/or an insulation system produced therewith and also an electrical machine having the insulation system, for the medium- and high-voltage sector. Some examples include rotating electrical machines in the medium- and high-voltage sector and also semifinished products for electrical switchgear. The solid insulation material and the insulation system produced therewith are characterized in that it can be produced in an anhydride-free manner, wherein the curing catalyst is, for example, an adduct of a 1H-imidazole and/or 1H-imidazole derivative with a compound containing oxirane groups.

A resin composition that includes a maleimide compound, an alkenyl-substituted nadimide, a silane compound having a styrene skeleton and a hydrolyzable group or a hydroxy group, and an inorganic filler.

A wire harness that is capable of protecting a wire even if a pipe is damaged includes: a wire disposed in a pipe; and a protective material surrounding and protecting a predefined portion of the wire, the predefined portion being disposed within the pipe. This configuration places the protective material on a portion that is likely to be damaged in the event of, for instance, a collision of a vehicle, thereby capable of protecting the wire even if the pipe is damaged. This configuration is also capable of avoiding the diameter of the pipe being increased for the process of passing the wire through the pipe, because the wire in this configuration is passed through the pipe with greater ease than a wire surrounded by a protective material along its entire length of the wire.

A textile sleeve for protecting elongate members against EMI and method of construction thereof is provided. The sleeve includes a wall having opposite edges extending lengthwise in generally parallel relation with a longitudinal axis between opposite ends. The opposite edges are configured to overlap one another to bound a central cavity extending between the opposite ends. The wall includes warp filaments, extending generally parallel to the longitudinal axis, woven with weft filaments, extending generally transversely to the warp filaments. The warp filaments include substantially electrically non-conductive multifilaments woven in a plain weave pattern with the weft filaments and electrically conductive members woven with the weft filaments to form a plurality of floats, with each of the floats extending over at least two adjacent ones of the weft filaments.

A complex harness includes first electric wires, each of which includes a first center conductor and a first insulation that covers the first center conductor, a cable including second electric wires, each of which includes a second center conductor and a second insulation that covers the second center conductor, and an inner sheath that covers the second electric wires, and an outer sheath covering the first electric wires and the cable collectively. The first electric wires are extended from an end of the outer sheath. The cable is extended from the end of the outer sheath in a state where the second electric wires are collectively covered by the inner sheath in such a manner that an extension length of the cable from the end of the outer sheath is greater than an extension length of the first electric wires from the end of the outer sheath.
