History and Design Parameters of Low- and Intermediate-Pressure Oil-Filled Cable in the Western Hemisphere Operating at 60 kV and Above

Although the first low-pressure oil-filled cable operating at 60 kV and above was installed in the Western Hemisphere in 1927, there are still some utilities which are installing this type cable for the first time. Due to the increasing popularity of high- pressure pipe-type cable, very small amounts of this cable are being installed today.
