Patent

CA 2141512

An alternate polarity water cooled kickless cable utilizes semi-circular half terminal end members which have diameters abutting an insulator separator. The inner end of each terminal is provided with blind slots offset from each other along the abutting diameters. The slots are arranged for individual conductor strand fittings which are closely fitted and soldered in the appropriate slot. The slot arrangement is such that the good electrical contact is obtained on at least three sides and when the end members are secured together, the individual conductor strand terminations are captured within the slots so they cannot move transversely of the axis of the cable. A soft yieldable star or spur separator is employed between the terminations which has an enlarged center hole and a significant radius between each leg avoiding a sharp V-notch which would tend to pinch each conductor strand when the cable twists. At each end, the center hole is provided with a two-stage stiffener so that the overall cable will be most flexible in the middle and progressively less flexible near the terminations. The construction improves the efficiency and life of the cable. There is also disclosed a method of making the cable.
