ties of the individual sections will not be identical. In accordance with this invention, the longitudinal flux component of each section for a given current is separately measured and sections having nearly identical longitudinal flux components are paired or twinned.
It has been hitherto proposed to eliminate the longitudinal induction component of a loaded conductor by cons ructing the cable exactly in accordance with an accurate design. See Patent 1,674,912, issued June 26, 1926 to U. Meyer. lls contrasted with this method, the present invention obviates the necessity of painstalringjcare in the manufacture of the cables. The difference between the permeability of the loading material of one cable section and that of another section is compensated in the process of matching the cable sections after they have been manufactured and tested.
Fig. 1 of the accompanying drawings show a twin core submarine cable constructed in accordance with this invention;
Fig. 2 shows an arrangement for testing the loaded conductors before they are matched with each other;
Fig. 3 is a curve plotted from readings taken by the ballistic galvanometer shown in Fig. 2;

Referring to the submarine cable shown in Fig. l, the central copper conductors 9 are surrounded by a number of segments 11, say six, shaped to fit the central conductors 10. Upon the segments 11 is applied a helix of loading material 12. Suitable loading materials and suitable methods of applying loading materials are known and need not be discussed herein. The conductor is heat treated after the loading material is applied thereto. Suitable heat treating methods such as are well known may be employed. The loading material is surrounded by a pressure equalizing fluid, su h as liquid bitumen or depolymerized rubber. Surrounding the loading material is a sheath of insulating material 13 such as gutta percha or gutta percha substitute. The entire structure thus far described constitutes a unit hereinafter referred to as a core. Two such cores are twinned together in a twinning machine and given a spiral lay or pitch. The pitch is preferably of the order The cores 13 are surrounded by the usual jute, teredo tape and armor wire, not shown.
In the process of manufacture of the cores,
"the loading tapes on the two conductors are constructed to have, as nearly as possible, the same permeability, thickness, width and lay. Two cores are arranged to form a twowire circuit, with the loading tapes of the two cores having the same direction of lay as illustrated in Fig. 1. Assuming that the two cores are matched perfectly, the longitudinal component of magnetic induction set up by one conductor will be neutralized by the corresponding component set up by the other conductor.
In practice, the dimensions, permeability and lay of the loading tape vary slightly, and to compensate for corresponding variations in the magnetic field, a number of sections of loaded conductors of about a mile in length, and approximately similar in construct-ion, are separately measured and from the measurements taken, two conductor sections are selected which when paired together will most nearly neutralize each others longitudinal flux component.
Fig. 2 shows an arrangement for recording the longitudinal component of magnetic induction at dill'erent points along the length of a loaded conductor. The conductor 10 after being wrapped with loading material is wound upon a paying-out reel 20 and is adapted to pass from that reel to another reel 21. The cable is connected electrically with the reels and with the supports 22 for the same. The supports 22 are insulated from each other by insulating blocks 23, and are connected to form a series circuit with the conductor 10, a battery 24, a key 25, an ammeter 2G and a rheostat 27. A solenoid or exploring coil 30 surrounds the conductor 10 and is supported by suitable means, not shown. A two-pole double-throw switch 32 is connected to the terminals of the solenoid 30, and is adapted, when thrown in one position, to connect the solenoid to a ballistic galvanometer 35. In its other position the switch 32 connects the terminals of the solenoid through an amplifier 37, preferably of the thermionic vacuum tube type, to a flux meter 40.
Upon opening and closing the key 25 an electromot-ive force will be induced in the solenoid having a value which depends upon the longitudinal flux component of the conductor 10. A reading is taken on the ballistic galvanometer at the instant that the key is closed or opened. The conductor 10 is then moved to a different position relative to the solenoid 30, and another reading taken on the ballistic galvanomctcr. A series of readings thus taken may be plotted, as shown in Fig. 3. The ordinates of the curve in Fig. 8 represent the values of longitudinal fiuX component at di ferent points along the conductor 10. A. similar set of readings is taken for another cable section,
and another curve similar to Fig. 3 is plotted. The curves for the different cable sections are compared, and those sections whose curves approximately coincide are paired with each other. In taking these measurements it is necessary that the steady direct current through the conductor 10 following each closing or preceding each opening of the key 25 be keptat approximately the same value. This current can be regulated conveniently by the rhcostat 2?.
A more expeditious method of obtaining flux readings for the purposes of comparison may be employed by using the flux meter 40 in conjunction with the ballistic galvanometer 35.
The flux meter l0 should be of the type which integrates changes in magnetic field over a long period of time before the indicating element of the flux meter creeps apprcciably toward the zero position. The flux meter readings are taken while the conductor 10 is moved, at an approximately uniform rate, through the solenoid 30. During the time the readings are taken, a steady dir ct current flows through the conductor. The initial reading of the flux meter may be taken by closing the key 25 after the conductor 10 has started moving. The flux meter indicating element moves from its zero position to a position representing the longitudinal flux component at one point on the conductor 10. As the longitudinal flux within the solenoid 30 increases or decreases, the deflection of the indicating element increases or decreases correspondingly.
The readings of the flux meter may be ob served at regular intervals while the conductor 10 is moving and may be plotted to obtain a curve similar to the one shown in Fig. 3. A more convenient method, however, is to provide the flux meter with an arrangement for recording the deflections automatically.
The satisfactory operation of the flux meter method of measuring longitudinal flux as described above, is dependent to a large extent upon the property of the indi eating element to remain in the same position when the longitudinal flux is distributed evenly along the conductor 10, and there is hence no electromotive force induced in the solenoid 30. If the indicating element of the flux meter, under these conditions creeps toward the zero position, errors in the readings will cumulate. As a check upon the flux meter readings the switch 32 may be thrown occasionally to the opposite position and one or more readings may be taken with theballistic galvanometer 35.
While two methods have been described for measuring and recording the longitudinal flux component of a conduct )r, it is to be understood that there are othe" methods, whereby these same readings may be recorded. For example, the arrangement shown in the patent issued to O. E. Buckley No. 1,586,962, June 1, 1926 is suitable for the purpose mentioned.
F 4 shows a multi-conductor cable comprising two conductors 51 and 52 twisted upon each other to form one pair, and two other conductors 53 and 54, respectively, which are similarly twisted to form a second pair. Each pair of conductors forms a two wire circuit. The two pairs of conductors are twisted upon each other to form a quad. Each conductor is separately loaded by a helical tape and insulated preferably by paper. Each conductor, being loaded, sets up a magnetic field which has a component longitudinal with respect to the conductor. If the two conductors of a pair are properly matched in accordance with the method described above, the rcsultant longitudinal component of magnetic induction will be zero. However, if no attempt has been made to match the conductors of each pair, or if the conductors have been matched imperfectly, an arrangement may be employed for neutralizing the resultant longitudinal flux component of one pair of conductors with the resultant component from. another pair of conductors, of which the two pairs form a quad.
An arrangement for measuring the resultant longitudinal flux component of a pair of conductors 51 and 52 is shown in Fig. 5. A device similar to that shown in Fig. 2 is provided, but in the device of Fig. 7.
5 it is necessary to provide a slip ring arrangement so that the ends of the conductors 51 and 52 may be connected to the battery 6st. The conductors 51 and 52 are connected to each other electrically at one end whereby the two conductors carry the same current in opposite directions. The slip rings 65 and 66, respectively, are connected to the free ends of the conductors 51 and 52 and cooperate with brushes 67 and 68 to? connect the conductors 51 and 52 serially with the battery G l-"and an arrangement which consists of a key, ammeter and rheostat similar to those shown in Fig. 2. The
solenoid may be connected in the same manner as the solenoid 30 of Fig. 2.
As an alternative to the arrangement of Fig. 5 the resultant longitudinal flux component at any point along a pair of loaded conductors may be computed by plotting" one pair with that of another pair of con-' ductors, crosstalk between the two pairs may be avoided.

1.
