Abstract :
In a study of newly developed arsenical-lead alloys for sheathing of underground power cables, it has been found that these alloys are superior to copper-bearing alloys in the following aspects: withstanding bending caused by thermal expansion, resistance to creep caused by internal pressures, and life-to-fracture under tensile stress.
