Abstract

A charging cable includes a ground conductor and extending in a longitudinal direction, at least two heavy-current power wires for conducting positive and negative direct current, each comprising a power conductor and insulation, the heavy-current power wires extending parallel to the ground wire, a liquid tight inner sheath extending in the longitudinal direction and surrounding the heavy-current power wires to define a first hollow area between and around the heavy-current power wires, liquid coolant being provided between the heavy-current power wires along the longitudinal direction, wherein the liquid tight inner sheath comprises a second hollow area extending in the longitudinal direction, arranged adjacent to at least one of the heavy-current power wires and comprising liquid coolant to flow within the second hollow area, and a liquid tight outer sheath extending in the longitudinal direction and surrounding the inner sheath and the ground heavy-current wire.
