COVER ASSEMBLIES FOR ELECTRICAL CABLES AND METHODS AND KITS INCLUDING SAME

摘要

A method for forming a cover assembly on an electrical power transmission cable includes: mounting a tubular cover member around the cable such that a portion of the cover member defines a cavity surrounding the cable; providing a flowable electrical stress grading material in the cavity; and applying a vacuum to the cavity to evacuate air from the cavity and compact the electrical stress grading material in the cavity.
