Abstract
A plant for transmitting electric power between at least two alternating voltage networks which are each connected through a station to a direct voltage network for high voltage direct current. The stations transmit power between the direct voltage network and the respective alternating voltage networks. At least one VSC converter is in each station to convert direct voltage to alternating voltage and the converse. A cable with an insulating layer of polymer base surrounding a conductor forms the direct voltage network connecting the stations.
