Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a cable with an excellent water-tree resisting property, by mixing a crown compound to one or both of the inner and the outer semiconductor layers. CONSTITUTION:On a copper stranded wire conductor 1, an inner semiconductor layer 2, an insulating layer 3 in which a conpound of the debenzo-18 and the crown-6 is mixed, an outer semiconductor layer 4, and an outer cover 5 are formed in order, so as to compose a cable. Since the transfer and the dispersion of metallic positive ions included in the layers are prevented by the crown compound, the generation and the development of the water-tree are suppressed, so as to improve the water-tree resisting property.
