High-power low-resistance electromechanical cable
A high-power low-resistance electromechanical cable constructed of a conductor core comprising a plurality of conductors surrounded by an outer insulating jacket. Each conductor has a center conductor element surrounded by a plurality of copper wires, wherein the plurality of copper wires is compacted to have a non-circular cross-section. The center conducting element may be one of a fiber optic strand, a copper wire having an indented outer surface, or a twisted conductor pair. Each conductor also includes a conductor insulating jacket encapsulating the plurality of copper wires and center conducting element. A first armoring layer of a plurality of strength members is wrapped around the outer insulating jacket. A second armoring layer of a plurality of strength members may also be wrapped around the first layer. A polymer jacket layer may encapsulate the first and/or second armoring layers of strength members.
Anisotropic wire harness
A wire harness including a number of wires, an outer sheath layer, and an anisotropic fabric positioned between the wires and outer sheath is provided. The anisotropic fabric is formed from combining a number of more rigid, monofilament fill strands and a number of less rigid multifilament warp strands. The fill strands may be formed from a single filament of at least five hundred fifty (550) denier while the warp strands may be formed from a series of polyester threads of at least two hundred (200) denier. The anisotropic layer permits limited rotation of the inner wires relative to the outer sheath when exposed to friction and pressure and is not subjected to significant creep during use.
Vehicular high-voltage wire and wire harness
A vehicular high-voltage wire that can suppress short-circuiting between a positive wire and a negative wire that are connected to an in-vehicle high-voltage battery. A wire harness includes a positive high-voltage wire and a negative high-voltage wire that are connected to an in-vehicle high-voltage battery. The positive high-voltage wire includes a core wire that is made of a conductor and is for electrical connection to the high-voltage battery, and a protection member that is constituted by woven reinforced fibers that have an insulation property, and is shaped as a tube that surrounds the outer circumference of the core wire.
Dynamic submarine power cable
A dynamic submarine power cable including a first conductor, a first insulation system layer, a first sheath, and a first screen layer arranged between the first insulation system layer and the first sheath. The first screen layer includes a plurality of first screen wires each having a first diameter and a plurality of first polymer wires each having a second diameter which is larger than the first diameter. The first screen wires and the first polymer wires are arranged in a helical manner around the first insulation system layer. The first screen wires and the first polymer wires are arranged alternatingly along the periphery of the first insulation system layer in any cross section. A radial distance between the central axis of any of the first screen wires and the central axis of the first conductor is less than a radial distance between the central axis of any of the first polymer wires and the central axis of the first conductor.
CABLE HAVING SYNTHETIC TENSILE MEMBERS
A cable includes a core and a braided synthetic tensile material. The tensile material is adapted to form a tensile member so as to longitudinally support the core when the cable is used in vertical applications. The tensile member may generally surround the core or be part of the core.
Optical broadband node cable
A reduced diameter composite microcable of low weight that is capable of withstanding a tensile load of at least 300 pounds with less than 0.6% fiber strain, is capable of operation between ?40 C and 70 C with less than 0.1 dB/km attenuation change at 1550 nm, and whose outer diameter is less than 15 mm is provided. The microcable includes at least one buffer tube, at least one electrical power conductor, at least one rigid strength member cabled together into a multi-unit core, wherein a plurality of optical fibers are placed within the at least one buffer tube.
Non-halogen multilayer insulating wire
A non-halogen insulating wire with excellent flame resistance as well as high mechanical characteristics (wear resistance) and electrical insulation characteristics is provided. A non-halogen two-layer insulating wire includes: a conductor; and an insulating layer having an insulating inner layer which covers an outer circumference of the conductor and an insulating outer layer which covers an outer circumference of the insulating inner layer. The insulating inner layer is made of a first non-halogen resin composition which contains metal hydroxide and a base polymer (A) including polyolefin, and has a thickness of 20% to 58% of an entire thickness of the insulating layer. The insulating outer layer is made of a second non-halogen resin composition which contains metal hydroxide and a base polymer (B) including polyester resin and/or polyester elastomer resin.
