- Summary: The article discusses the importance of semiconductive strand fills in preventing water intrusion in underground cables. These fills are used to fill the interstitial spaces between conductors and insulation layers, blocking water from entering and migrating along the conductor. Chase BLH2OCK® is introduced as a high - performance semiconductive water - blocking strand fill compound.
