Red Sea Cable is the designation of a 13.6 km long 400 kV AC submarine power cable under the Red Sea in order to interconnect the power grids of Egypt and Jordan. The project was commissioned in 1994 and inaugurated in 1998. The cable with a maximum transmission capacity of 2000 MW reaches a maximum depth of 850 metres. It has a cross section of 1000 mm2 per conductor and is implemented as oil-filled single core cable insulated with cellulose paper impregnated with a low viscosity mineral oil. A sheath of arsenic lead alloy F3 (0.15% arsenic, 0.1% tin, 0.1% bismuth and 99.65% lead) prevents water from penetrating the paper insulation. The cable is part of a 400 kV-line from Taba in Egypt to Aqaba in Jordan. == Coordinates == * 29.379469 N 34.977669 E: Aqaba Power Station * 29.432459 N 34.977121 E: Aqaba Cable Terminal * 29.486346 N 34.875476 E: Taba Cable Terminal * 29.611148 N 34.841852 E: Taba substation 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Red Sea Cable」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
