Abstract

In a stop joint between fluid-filled electric cables, the barrier to flow of dielectric fluid from one to the other of the cables comprises an elongate metal member, by which the cable conductors are both electrically and mechanically connected, and a flexible membrane of fluid-impermeable insulating material. The membrane, which is a single sheet of the insulating material, is sealed to the elongate metal member and to the fluid-tight joint enclosure and is incorporated in a fluid-impregnated laminated body of lappings of paper and/or other insulating material built up on the elongate metal member and on the cut back ends of the cables.
