Abstract:Long-term voltage characteristics (V-t characteristics) have been evaluated for XLPE cables having 6-mm mulation thickness that were energized while m e r s e d , and the causes of cable breakdown have been elucidated by means of residual breakdown tests conducted by the pre-interruption method. The life index n was found to increased with decreases in the intensity of the applied field. Among causes of breakdown in these cables are the influence of water penetration itself and the effects of the onset and gro… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
