Abstract
A cable comprising an electrical conductor with insulating and protecting layers surrounding the conductor is described. The cable is characterised in that at least one layer selected from said insulating and protecting layers consists of a crosslinked ethylene-alkyl (meth)acrylate-unsaturated silane terpolymer composition wherein the alkyl (meth)acrylate comonomer comprises more than 5 mole % and the terpolymer composition has a tensile modulus, determined according to ISO 527-2 (1 mm/min) of less than 100 MPa. Preferably, the crosslinked ethylene-alkyl (meth)acrylate polymer is a moisture curable ethylene-alkyl (meth)acrylate-vinyl trialkoxysilane terpolymer, wherein the trialkoxysilan termonomer comprises 0.2-5% by weight of the polymer composition. The polymer composition may include from 0 up to 50% by weight of a plasticiser, up to 60% by weight of a filler, and up to 10% by weight of an additive.
