Abstract
Cable having a stress parameter less than 0 MPa and method for cable. The cable has a longitudinal core having a thermal expansion coefficient; and a plurality of wires collectively having a thermal expansion coefficient greater than the thermal expansion coefficient of the core. The plurality of wires, which are stranded around the core, include at least one of aluminum wires, copper wires, aluminum alloy wires, or copper alloy wires. Embodiments of the cable are useful, for example, as an overhead power transmission line.
