Electric field
When voltage is applied to cables, electric fields are formed which can take on different forms depending on the cable construction. In the low-voltage range up to approx. 1kV, electric fields have hardly any influence on the dimensions of the insulation wall thicknesses. To ensure operational safety, high demands are placed on the materials and dimensions in the high-voltage range. An electric field is represented by field lines. The density of these field lines shows the sizes of the force that prevails between the two points of a field line (voltage). (All data without guarantee)
