Abstract:Cable accessory has the interface formed by cross‐linked polyethylene (XLPE)/silicone rubber (SiR), which is prone to surface discharge and thus causes the failure of cable system. This article conducts the simulated experiment of thermal–mechanical aging on the interface of XLPE/SiR. The interfacial breakdown and dielectric properties under different aging states are analyzed. It is found the interfacial aging process of XLPE can be divided into the recrystallization stage and the oxidation reaction stage. Th… Show more
