Abstract:
An element for making an electric contact to a contact member (5, 15, 19, 41) for enabling an electric current to flow between said element and said contact member, said element (3,14, 42) comprising a body (6) having at least a contact surface (2, 4, 16, 43, 44) thereof coated with a contact layer applied against said contact member. The contact layer comprises a film comprising a multielement material with equal or similar composition as any of a layered carbide or nitride that can be described as Mn+1AXn,, where M is a transition metal or a combina tion of a transition metals, n is 1, 2, 3 or higher, A is an group A element or a combination of a group A element, element and X is Carbon, Nitrogen or both.
Abstract:
An electric contact element (1,12) for an arcing contact (2,7) comprising a contact body (3,13) arranged to be applied against a second contact element (4,15), where the contact body comprises a Mn+1AXn- material, wherein M is at least one transition metal, A is at least one element selected from group 13-17 in the periodic table, X is C and/or N, and n is 1,2,3 or higher. A method of making a contact element comprising a contact body comprising a Mn+1AXn-material. Use of an electric contact element comprising a contact body comprising a Mn+1AXn-material in an arcing contact.

Abstract:
An arrangement for electrically insulating a high voltage component (6) comprises a container (1) enclosing a volume (5) around the component. The volume is filled with a ceramic powder.
Abstract:
A bushing for an electrical device including an insulating core, where at least a part of the insulating core includes a continuous diffusion barrier with firm adhesion to the insulating core. The bushing is manufactured by coating at least a part of the insulating core with the continuous diffusion barrier.
