Very impressive high-voltage cables
« on: May 17, 2020, 08:39:10 pm »
Solid-dielectric 345KV cables 6.5 miles (10.5 km) long, extruded as single continuous lengths, requiring 10 days: https://www.transmissionhub.com/articles/2012/01/abb-sets-new-power-cable-record-in-new-york-harbor.html

I didn't even realize that solid-dielectric cables were made for such a high voltage!  I thought it would need oil-filled pipe cable.

This document has physical and electrical specs for ABB's high-voltage land cables:
