Abstract

A conducting medium or high voltage cable can include at least one conductor surrounded by an insulating layer. One or more layers of conducting wires can surround the insulating layers, and the layers of conducting wires themselves can be separated by insulating layers. The centrally disposed conductor and surrounding circumferential conducting layers can include copper, aluminum, or a combination of both. The central conductor can range between about 1000 kcmil to about 4000 kcmil cross-sectional area, and the surrounding layers of conducting wires can be at least about 250 kcmil.
