A tubular elastic covering (730) for electric components (700), having on the whole predetermined values of mechanical and electric/environmental requirements, in which the mechanical requirements comprise expandibility and elastic recovery in a radial direction, and electric/environmental requirements comprise resistance to tracking and resistance to solar radiation, characterized in that said covering comprises an inner insulating layer (680) and an outer insulating layer (660) coaxial with each other, in superposed relationship and bonded together, made of blends of cross-linked polymeric material, in which the cross-linked blend forming the inner layer has predetermined values of said mechanical requirements and the cross-linked blend forming the outer layer has predetermined values of said electric/environmental requirements. Also described is a method of making this covering, a termination (700) for electric cables (605) comprising this covering and a method of mounting said termination to an electric cable. <IMAGE> |
