  • Patent number: 10225967
    Abstract: A noise suppression cable includes an insulated electric wire including an insulator that covers an outer periphery of a conductor wire, and a magnetic tape layer formed by transversely winding a magnetic tape on an outer periphery of the insulated electric wire. A magnetic body constituting the magnetic tape is cut out from a rolled material in such a manner that a width direction of the magnetic tape corresponds to a rolled direction, and the magnetic body has a magnetic property that is different between the width direction and an orthogonal direction to the width direction.

  • Patent number: 9679688
    Abstract: A shield cable includes an insulated electrical cable of a conductor wire sheathed about the circumference by an insulator, and a magnetic tape layer formed by wrapping magnetic tape about the circumference of the insulated electrical cable. The magnetic tape is a magnetic tape shaped by continuously cutting to constant width an elongated sheet comprising a magnetic material. The magnetic tape, on at least the insulated electrical cable-facing surface thereof, has grooves extending in the lengthwise direction, for accommodating at least one of pairs of burrs that are formed at both widthwise edge surfaces during cutting of the elongated sheet.

  • Patent number: 9645189
    Abstract: A partial discharge charge amount measuring method includes generating a partial discharge in a sample by applying a voltage from a voltage impressing device connected to the sample, the voltage being higher than a partial discharge inception voltage, continuously measuring and recording terminal voltages of a capacitor connected in series between the sample and a ground at least until a breakdown of the sample occurs by alternately operating at least two data loggers connected to the capacitor at intervals of a predetermined time, calculating an amount of electric charge discharged from the sample and remaining in the capacitor by multiplying a difference in the recorded terminal voltages of the capacitor by a capacitance of the capacitor, and calculating an accumulated discharge amount by accumulating the discharged amount of electric charge at earliest until the breakdown of the sample occurs.
