Does a deep undersea cable have any impact on the power required to transport electricity (due to pressure) or is it not affected at all since it's just the flow of electrons inside the insulated material?

This thread is proof /diy/ is smarter than /sci/.

Yes the pressure effects the electrons so the whole thing goes a bit slower because the material is more dense.. You need more power to speed them up and have it working at normal conditions.

Flow of electrons =/= flow of electric charge

Pretty sure the duct is filled with air at 1atm.

Aren't all underwater cables optic cables and not electric cables?

They're fiber optic. There is definitely more pressure but unless the density of the fiber optic material is greater the light will still travel the same speed.

There are plenty of undersea cables moving electrical power.
