Abstract :
The problem in high voltage cables is to contain voltages of the order of 100,000 to 500,000 volts by means of a suitable insulating medium around a conductor of diameter between l/2 in. and 2 in., the cable being of sufficient flexibility to permit being transported in long lengths on reels. An overall diameter of about 4 in. is about the largest practical size.
