Description

The development and manufacture of high quality mineral insulated cable for reactor instrumentation use is described. Electrical specifications are set out. The possible conductivity mechanisms in cable MgO and the likelihood that ionic conductivity predominates in the temperature range 300-7000 is discussed. The oxidation of iron impurities is considered and the influence of water is identified. (U.K.)
