Summary

edit
This file is translated using SVG <switch> elements. All translations are stored in the same file! Learn more.

For most Wikipedia projects, you can embed the file normally (without a lang parameter). The Wikipedia will use its language if the SVG file supports that language. For example, the German Wikipedia will use German if the SVG file has German. To embed this file in a particular language use the lang parameter with the appropriate language code, e.g. [[File:Mu-metal cable.svg|lang=en]] for the English version. Do not specify a lang parameter if it is not needed. The parameter may prevent the use of a subsequent translation.

To translate the text into your language, you can use the SVG Translate tool. Alternatively, you can download the file to your computer, add your translations using whatever software you're familiar with, and re-upload it with the same name. You will find help in Graphics Lab if you're not sure how to do this.

Description
English: Mu metal submarine telegraph cable construction. This was a type of cable used for long undersea telegraph cables, invented by The Telegraph Construction and Maintenance Company Ltd., London, in 1923. The copper conductor was wrapped with fine wire made of Mu metal, a high permeability nickel-iron alloy. It had been found that the seawater surrounding ordinary cables distorted the signal carried by them, resulting in very low transmission rates. The Mu metal wrapping added inductance to the cable, correcting the distortion and enabling higher data rates.
