Handbook of Electric Cable Technology for Deep Ocean Applications

Abstract

A comprehensive literature search and analysis of actual and anticipated cable problems provides technological information for the selection of cable components and designs for deep ocean applications. Candidate component materials are listed, their properties described, and their limitations discussed. Design details, resulting from a current development program, are given for the first generation family of outboard cables for deep ocean applications. Information for the selection, specification, and installation of outboard cables and discussions on known and anticipated problems is included. A glossary of cable and related terms with a section of useful tables is provided. It is planned to revise and update this handbook periodically during the development program.
