The present invention discloses electrical cables containing a cable core and a plurality of conductive elements surrounding the cable core. The cable core contains at least one composite core, and each composite core contains a rod which contains a plurality of unidirectionally aligned fiber rovings embedded within a thermoplastic polymer matrix, and surrounded by a capping layer. 120-. (canceled)21. An electrical cable comprising: (i) at least one rod comprising a plurality of consolidated thermoplastic impregnated rovings, the rovings comprising carbon fibers and a thermoplastic matrix that embeds the carbon fibers, the carbon fibers having a ratio of ultimate tensile strength to mass per unit length of greater than about 1,000 MPa/g/m, wherein the thermoplastic matrix comprises a polyphenylene sulfide, and wherein the rod comprises from about 30 wt. % to about 75 wt. % carbon fibers; and', '(ii) a capping layer surrounding the at least one rod, wherein the capping layer contains less than 5 wt. % of carbon fibers; and, '(a) a cable core comprising at least one composite core, the composite core comprising(b) a plurality of conductive elements surrounding the cable core.22. The cable of claim 21 , wherein the cable has:a sag, at rated temperature of 180° C., for a 300-meter level span with a NESC light loading, in a range from about 3 m to about 9.5 m; and/ora sag, at rated temperature of 180° C., for a 300-meter level span with a NESC heavy loading, in a range from about 3 m to about 7.5 m.23. The cable of claim 21 , wherein the cable has:a 10-year creep value at 15% RBS (rated breaking stress) of less than about 0.2%; and/ora 10-year creep value at 30% RBS (rated breaking stress) of less than about 0.25%.24. The cable of claim 21 , wherein the capping layer:has a thickness in a range from about 0.01 mm to about 10 mm;contains less than about 1 wt. % of carbon fibers; andcomprises a polyether ether ketone.25. The cable of claim 21 , wherein the cable passes an ...
