Abstract
A solid DC cable is made of a conductor having multilayered insulating layer around the outer circumference of the conductor. The insulating layer has a layering configuration selected from one of the following arrangements: (i) a main insulating layer and a low resistance tape layer, where the low-resistance tape layer contains carbon paper that has a volume resistivity which is smaller than that of the main insulating layer; (ii) a main insulating layer containing kraft paper, and a low-resistance insulating layer containing a low resistance kraft paper having a resistivity smaller than the kraft paper of the main insulating layer; (iii) a main insulating layer containing a composite tape, where the tape is contains a laminate of a low-loss plastic film and kraft paper, and a low-resistance insulating layer containing kraft paper having a resistivity lower than the main insulating layer; or (iv) a low-resistance tape layer containing carbon paper described in (i), a low-resistance insulating layer containing the low-resistance kraft paper described in (ii) and a main insulating layer. The low-resistance insulating layer or the low-resistance tape layer is positioned above the conductor in a region where the pressure of the insulating oil becomes negative when a voltage load is cut off.
