Abstract: An arrangement for anchoring a floating structure comprising a mooring boom 120a, b; 650a, b pivotally arranged at either end, wherein each mooring boom at its free end has a bushing 124a, b: 654a, b through which anchor chains or wires can run. The anchor chain that runs through one of the bushings is fastened to the opposite end of the structure. In addition, for reasons of stability there may be tensioned lines which connect the free ends of both mooring booms to the structure.

Abstract: A plant, generator and rotating member for the production of power from currents in a body of water, comprising a fixedly mounted of floating structure, and a plurality of replaceable generator units (750) supported by the structure and which are driven by the water currents. The structure comprises arms (615, 720, 730). The rotating member (400) comprises a plurality of member sections (410) rotatably mounted on a shaft (405) between an end piece (407) and a tip (406). The generator comprises a contra-rotating rotor (550) and stator (800) connected to respective shafts (500, 820) and hearings, where the stator frame (800) is axially supported (810) on the first shaft (500) and the first shaft (500) at one end thereof is axially supported (810) on the stator frame. The generator according to the invention can be used for the production of electric power, and as an electromotor for the production of mechanical rotational energy.

Abstract: A cable is described which has improved flame/fire and oil/abrasion resistant properties. The cable is halogen free since the conductor insulation and all sheaths are of the self-extinguishing type. A metal screen braided at an angle between 35.degree. and 45.degree. formed between the individual wires and a plane at right angles to the cable axis over a vulcanized filler sheath provides protection of the cable conductors during fires. Outermost there is placed a thin oil and abrasion resistant extruded layer of nylon.
