Abstract

A gas insulated transmission line includes a hollow outer conductor having an inner conductor and a support framework disposed therein. A tensioned insulating member is utilized to support the inner conductor within the outer conductor and the support framework. The insulating member is made of flexible insulating filaments which are tensioned to a predetermined amount which is greater than the tension caused by suspending the weight of the inner conductor alone.
