Insulative Spacer For A Low Temperature Coaxial Cable And Coaxial Cable Including The Same

US Patent:
4315098, Feb 9, 1982
Filed:
Jul 25, 1979
Appl. No.:
6/060394
Inventors:
John J. Dougherty - San Jose CA
Mario Rabinowitz - Menlo Park CA
George Bahder - Edison NJ
Assignee:
Electric Power Research Institute, Inc. - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
H01B 1200, H01B 316, H01B 356, H01B 904
US Classification:
174 15S
Abstract:
A coaxial electric power transmission cable has an inner conductor within an outer conductor with solid dielectric material provided in the space therebetween. The dielectric material is solid at operating temperatures but non-solid at ambient temperature. An insulative spacer is provided for maintaining the coaxial alignment. The spacer includes insulative material which is identical to the solid dielectric material and may include a solid insulative insert having a solidification point higher than the insulative material whereby at least approximate coaxial spacing may be maintained should the insulative material not be maintained as a solid.
