What is the meaning of ingress in electrical?
You are probably referring to moisture ingress. Moisture ingress into underground electrical cables, particularly high-voltage cables, can act to break down the insulating properties of that cable, and lead to a short circuit. Accordingly, underground cables incorporate a sheath (lead in older cables), which is impervious to moisture ingress, which surrounds the cable cores, and is located beneath the outer armouring. But moisture ingress can occur with all types of electrical equipment, and the manufacturers take steps to prevent this from happening.

What is the difference between sheathed and non-sheathed cable?
Cable sheath current is a current induced in the sheath by radio, magnetic or other interference, or a fault condition. The cable sheath should be grounded at one end so that this current flows to ground safely.
