  2. Underground power line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underground_power_line

    An underground power line provides electrical power with underground cables. Compared to overhead power lines, underground lines have lower risk of starting a wildfire and reduce the risk of the electrical supply being interrupted by outages during high winds, thunderstorms or heavy snow or ice storms. An added benefit of undergrounding is the ...

  5. Mineral-insulated copper-clad cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mineral-insulated_copper...

    If the MI cable jacket has been damaged the magnesium oxide will wick moisture into the cable and it will lose its insulating properties causing shorts to the copper cladding, and thence to earth. It is often necessary to remove 0.5 to 2 metres (1.6 to 6.6 ft) of the MI cable and splice in a new section to accomplish the repair.

  6. Pothead - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pothead

    Pothead. A pothead is a type of insulated electrical terminal used for transitioning between overhead line and underground high-voltage cable or for connecting overhead wiring to equipment like transformers. [1] Its name comes from the process of potting or encapsulation of the conductors inside the terminal's insulating bushing.

  7. Line splice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_splice

    Splice site of a copper wire. Cable sleeve (lead sleeve) for connecting paper-insulated wires Insulating sleeves. The splicing of copper wires happens in the following steps: The cores are laid one above the other at the junction. The core insulation is removed. The wires are wrapped two to three times around each other .
