Provided is a power cable, and more particularly, to an ultra-high-voltage underground or submarine cable. In detail, the present invention relates to a power cable which is capable of effectively preventing a decrease in dielectric strength due to penetration of copper powder from a copper conductor into an insulating layer, thereby increasing the lifespan thereof, is capable of preventing damage to insulating paper, semiconductor paper, etc. even when repeatedly bent and unfolded, thereby maintaining an interlayer structure formed by winding the insulating paper, the semiconductor paper, etc., and is capable of improving bendability, flexibility, installability, workability, etc.

Power cable

A power cable includes a conductor, an inner semi-conductive layer covering the conductor, an insulating layer covering the inner semi-conductive layer and impregnated with insulating oil, an outer semi-conductive layer covering the insulating layer, a metal sheath layer covering the outer semi-conductive layer, and a cable protection layer covering the metal sheath layer. A minimum thickness t1 of a certain cross section of the metal sheath layer is less than or equal to 90% of a maximum thickness t2 thereof.

Provided is a power cable, particularly, an ultra-high voltage underground or submarine cable for long-distance direct-current transmission. Specifically, the present invention relates to a power cable which includes an insulating layer of high dielectric strength, is capable of uniformly and effectively alleviating an electric field applied to the insulating layer, is particularly structurally stable, has high flexibility, and is capable of suppressing partial discharge, dielectric breakdown, etc. of the insulating layer, thereby increasing the lifespan and productivity of the cable.

A power cable includes a conductor; an inner semi-conductive layer covering the conductor; an insulating layer covering the inner semi-conductive layer, the insulating layer being impregnated with an insulating oil; an outer semi-conductive layer covering the insulating layer; a metal sheath layer covering the outer semi-conductive layer; and a cable protection layer covering the metal sheath layer. The insulating layer is formed by cross-winding insulating paper and impregnating the insulating paper with the insulating oil. The inner semi-conductive layer and the outer semi-conductive layer are formed by cross-winding semi-conductive paper and impregnating the semi-conductive paper with the insulating oil. A thickness of the outer semi-conductive layer is 7.5 to 15% of a total thickness of the inner semi-conductive layer, the insulating layer, and the outer semi-conductive layer.
