Description
ELECTRICAL CONDUCTORS AND CABLES Technical field 1. 1. id="p-1"
id="p-1"
[0001] The present invention relates generally to electrical conductors. Theinvention also relates to electrical cables. Specifically, electrical conductors and cables with reduced electromagnetic field.
Background art 2. 2. id="p-2"
id="p-2"
[0002] Electrical conductors come in many different forms. Typically, it is theintended use of the conductor that determines the design of an electrical conductor.Some conductors are designed for power distribution, others are designed fortransmission of signals such as telecommunications signals as well as for otherpurposes. Furthermore, electrical conductors can be manufactured from manydifferent materials such as copper, aluminum, steel or nickel. Typically, two or more conductors are joined to form a cable. 3. 3. id="p-3"
id="p-3"
[0003] An electrical current running through a conductor causes it to radiate anelectromagnetic field. This electromagnetic field can negatively affect equipment inthe proximity of the cable, which can limit for example how closely togetherconductors or cables can be arranged. Therefore, regardless of the type of conductoror cable, it is typically desired that the radiated electromagnetic field is low. Often,this is achieved by providing shielding components which surround the entire length of the conductor. 4. 4. id="p-4"
id="p-4"
[0004] An alternative to providing shielding components is disclosed in US Patent9,953,737. The patent discloses a conductor and a cable having an aluminum coresurrounded by copper wires which has the effect of reducing the electromagneticfield. However, there are still many areas of technology where standardizeddimensions of electrical cables are commonly used, where such a conductor needs to be optimized in order to display a sufficiently reduced electromagnetic field. . . id="p-5"

[0009] Having said cross-sectional area of 4 mm2 occupied by this range ofaluminum and copper, reduces the electromagnetic field more than using anotherrange.
