Abstract: The current invention relates to self-supporting cables that often are aerial mounted between cable fixing points (800) and where the conductors in the cables act as the bearing elements. In this type of cables, slippage between the surfaces of different layers in the cable is undesirable. On the other hand, it must be possible to easily bend the cable, even for larger dimensions. Both these requirements are difficult to meet with the solutions from prior art. The present invention overcomes this by introducing an intermediate layer (130) between the surfaces (112, 121) comprising at least on tape (511) with friction particles (512) where the friction obtained by the friction particles (512) is low enough to allow the two surfaces (112, 121) to slip relatively each other in longitudinal direction enough so that the cable 100 can be bent but prevents the two surfaces (112, 121) from slipping in response to an inwardly directed radial pressure force (F) at the cable fixing points (800).

Abstract: A power cable comprises at least one insulated cable core having an electric conductor, a screen and an outer insulating sheath surrounding the core/cores, and an outer conducting material attached to the exterior of the outer sheath. The outer conducting material includes at least one band attached to the outer sheath extending along the full length of the cable and having a width (W) extending over only a part of an outer periphery of the cable. At least one groove extends along the cable outer sheath and the band/bands of conducting material are received in the groove/grooves, or at least one rib extends along the cable outer sheath and the band/bands of conducting material are attached to an outer surface of said rib/ribs; or at least one band of the outer conducting material is adhered to the outer sheath and requires a stripping force.

Abstract: The invention relates to distribution of electrical power, supervision and security. The invention comprises a power feeding station PFS for delivering electrical power. The PFS comprises a low voltage side LVS, a high voltage side HVS and a transformer TF which is configured to deliver high voltage single phase alternating current on the high voltage side, The power can be distributed, via a cable, to one or more power receiving stations PRS. The cable is configured to distribute current-symmetrical single phase current delivered by the power feeding station. The cable can preferable be a coaxial cable with the shield as current return path. The invention also comprises a current sensor unit CSU which is situated on the high voltage side. The means for measuring characteristics of the current CD can comprise a coil without galvanic contact with the high voltage side. A circuit break unit CBU suitable for breaking the current is situated on the low voltage side.

Abstract: An electrical cable with three insulated conductors, a tube for an optical cable, a strip of elastic material embedding the tube, and a jacket. When the cable is handled, e.g. suspended between poles or dredged into the ground, the tube can be deformed by external forces. This makes it impossible to blow or float the optical cable into the tube. The tube is protected by the strip, and especially by the strip having a flat interval in proximity to the tube. External forces will mainly deform the strip at the ends of the interval and less of the forces will hit the tube. The deformation sets up an interior pressure in the strip that acts in sideward direction on the tube and contributes to keep it round and non deformed.

Abstract: The present invention relates to problems how to keep cable arrangement functional, or at least make the damage as little as possible, after being exposed to different types of mechanical overloads. The problems are solved by methods and arrangements in which the securing means and the contact material of the securing means are arranged so that the cable can slide through the securing means when it is exposed to mechanical overloads.

Abstract: The figure shows an electrical cable with conductors (1) of metal, surrounded by each of an inner conducting layer (2), insulation (3) and an outer conducting layer (4). A moisture barrier (11) with an electrically conducting layer surrounds the conductors. Shield strips (5) of at least partially conducting material are located in the regions between the outer conducting layer (4) and the moisture barrier (11). Electrically conducting shield wires (6) run along the shield strips and are placed through these into electrical contact with the electrically conducting layer of the moisture barrier (11). The shield strips support the moisture barrier from the inside, such that the moisture barrier can in a simple manner be made watertight when it is applied. The shield strips (5), the moisture barrier (11) and the shield wires (6) together constitute an efficient electrical shield for the cable.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a combined cable suspension device and cable carriage. To enable a cable suspension device (1) to be used also as a cable carriage, the suspension device has been provided with a rotatable cable support (2) which can be moved upwards in the device providing a rotatable support for the cable when the cable is moved out of contact with the cable abutment surfaces (3) in the suspension device. This type of device that incorporates a cable carriage facility enables a cable to be drawn and secured and released as required.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an insulated electric cable (8) that has one or more conductors (4). With the intention of reducing the winding space, improving cooling, reducing stray flux and therewith improving the efficiency of apparatus and devices that include cable windings, the insulation of the cable in the cable winding has been given a varying thickness. The concept of providing the electric cable with insulation that varies in thickness can be utilised with both AC-cables and DC-cables. Moreover, the nature of the voltage concerned need not be decisive in the manufacture of the cable. The thickness distribution of the insulation may be linear (11) or non-linear (12), depending on the adaptation to the desired field strength distribution. The invention enables smaller, fewer and more effective apparatus and devices to be constructed.
