Abstract :
The first 345,000-volt underground power cable manufactured in America was delivered recently to the Cornell University campus in Ithaca, N. Y. Manufactured in the Paterson, N. J., plant of The Okonite Company, a subsidiary of Kennecott Copper Corporation, this is one of a group of cables being supplied by four major manufacturers for a co-operative testing program with the country´s largest utilities. A committee of the Associated Edison Illuminating Companies and the Edison Electric Institute is co-ordinating the program with Cornell´s electrical engineering staff.
