Insulation for an electric power cable, and a power cable including such insulation, the insulation having an improved dielectric strength and being irradiation cross-linked polymeric material having mixed therewith carbon black having a particle size in the range from about 200 to about 500 millimicrons, the carbon black content being about 10% to about 40% of the weight of the mixture of carbon black and the polymeric material. Also, the cable insulation may be layers of different density polyethylene, at least one of the layers being the described mixture of polyethylene and carbon black.

This improved gland assembly is primarily for use with mineral insulated cables. The same gland body and lock nut is used for cables regardless of the cable diameter. The dimensions of the compression ring are the same, except for the ring bore, which matches the diameter of the cable. The lock nut bottoms on a shoulder to prevent overtightening of the nut and risk of fracturing the sheath of the cable.
