Abstract: An electrical cable (K) has at least two strands (1) consisting of insulated conductors (2) stranded together. Insulation on the strands (1) consists of an inner layer in contact with the conductor, and which is softer than an outer layer. The strands (1) are surrounded by an inner sheathing (6). The cable (K) also has an electric shield (7) and an outer sheathing (8). A separator layer (5) is between the strands (1) and the inner sheathing (6), consisting of an inner layer (6a, 6b) fixedly joined together with an outer layer (6b). The inner layer (6a) facing the strands (1) is softer than the outer layer (6b), having an approximately circular peripheral surface and in firm contact with the separator layer (5) or the strands (1). The electric shield (7) consists of at least one essentially closed tubular metallic layer and a stranded layer and/or braiding of metallic wires in contact with the metallic layer.

Abstract: An elongate object (e.g., a cable) with at least one transmission element arranged in a core thereof, in which an outer sheath (3) of insulation material is applied over the core. To achieve specific properties of the sheath (3), the sheath is provided with a coating (4) of a cross-linkable insulating material, which is very thin compared to the thickness of the sheath, and the individual properties of which are adjusted to the particular application of the object.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a compound based on a thermoplastic, which may be cross-linked through irradiation using light lying in the ultraviolet range, is indicated. In this case, at least one photoinitiator and one cross-linking agent are added to a thermoplastic base material. To manufacture the compound, 0.2 to 3 parts of an alkyl benzophenone and/or a derivative thereof as a photoinitiator and 0.2 to 3 parts of a cross-linking agent and 0.1 to 5 parts stabilizers are added to 100 parts base material.
