First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A high voltage power cable, comprising: an insulating body defining an interior channel configured to receive and retain a coolant within; and an electrical conductor disposed within the insulating body, wherein the electrical conductor is arranged within the insulating body closer to an outer wall of the insulating body and further from the interior channel, thereby allowing heat exchange with the environment external to the high voltage power cable and with the interior channel. 2. The high voltage power cable of claim 1 , wherein the insulating body is overmolded on the electrical conductor. 3. The high voltage power cable of claim 1 , wherein the insulating body includes a peripheral wall around the interior channel and wherein electrical conductor is located in a central portion of the peripheral wall. 4. The high voltage power cable of claim 1 , wherein the insulating body is of a tubular or cylindrical form. 5. The high voltage power cable of claim 1 , wherein the electrical conductor includes an electrical conductor layer. 6. The high voltage power cable of claim 5 , wherein the electrical conductor layer is arranged around the interior channel. 7. The high voltage power cable of claim 5 , including at least two electrical conductor layers. 8. The high voltage power cable of claim 1 , wherein the electrical conductor has a first end contact surface and a second end contact surface including exposed outer surfaces of the electrical conductor for coupling the electrical conductor to respective electrical terminals. 9. The high voltage power cable of claim 1 , wherein the electrical conductor is comprised of a metal material, the metal material selected from a list consisting of copper, a copper alloy, aluminum, and an aluminum alloy. 10. The high voltage power cable of claim 1 , wherein the electrical conductor is configured to transmit a voltage of at least 1000 VAC RMS and/or at least 1500 VDC. 11. The high voltage power cable of claim 1 , wherein the electrical conductor has a cross-section area of at least 10 mm 2 . 12. The high voltage power cable of claim 11 , wherein the electrical conductor has a cross-section area of at least 25 mm 2 . 13. The high voltage power cable of claim 12 , wherein the electrical conductor has a cross-section area of at least 35 mm 2 . 14. The high voltage power cable of claim 1 , wherein the insulating body has a thickness of at least 0.5 mm. 15. The high voltage power cable of claim 14 , wherein the insulating body has a thickness of at least 1.0 mm. 16. The high voltage power cable of claim 1 , the insulating body including at least one shielding layer around the electrical conductor. 17. The high voltage power cable of claim 1 , including an overlay around the insulating body, the overlay including at least one shielding layer. 18. The high voltage power cable of claim 1 , wherein the insulating body is formed of a polymeric material. 19. The high voltage power cable of claim 18 , wherein the polymeric material is selected from the list consisting of cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE), polypropylene (PP), ethylene tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE), and fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP).
