The radial variation in electrical and chemical characteristics of cable insulation between conductor and sheath has been investigated by a new method whereby the power factor and the total oxidation products in the oil are determined for the individual layers of paper tapes. The results of this investigation applied to several types of service aged cable are reported in this article.
