  • Abstract
    Traveling waves may appear in power cables connected to high voltage transmission lines. The differences in voltage that will appear between the conductor and sheath of a cable at various points depend upon the nature and location of the cable sheath grounds. A few of the results of a considerable number of tests made to determine their effect are presented in this article, and some conclusions regarding protective measures are drawn.
