Conclusion
Reliable industrial solutions
Many developments and specific tests
have passed intrinsic issues
Strong bonding between foil and
outersheath
Up to 2 mm thick foils
Example
800 mm Alu 52/63 (72.5) kV
For a same permissible short-circuit
current intensity
Same ampacity if single point or cross
bonding (low eddy-current losses, good
heat dissipation)
