High Voltage Cable

The dielectric strength on an insulation is the voltage at which it breaks down and abruptly becomes a conductor. The exact break-down point of an insulation is affected by its thickness, temperature, the rate of voltage increase and duration, and the compound formula. The combination of good dielectric strength along with very high resistance to corona and ozone (as well as its high resistance to voltage stress fatigue over a wide temperature range) makes Silicone Rubber unsurpassed for high voltage use. Able Wire can manufacture cables for service at very high voltages - up to 80,000 volts.
