“Mirror Image” Space Charge Distribution in XLPE Power Cable under Opposite Stressing Voltage Polarity
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper presents the research on space charge distribution under different polarities in full size cross-linked polyethylene power cables using the pulsed electro-acoustic technique. Under both positive and negative voltage space charge distributions possess about the same profiles but opposite polarities. Similar phenomenon had been reported previously in plaque samples and was termed as “mirror image effect”. By comparing the results among the cables treated (degassing) under different conditions, the paper concludes that the “mirror image” charge distribution is mainly attributed to bulk effect within the volume of the insulation, whilst the electron transfer by tunnelling through an electrode/insulator interface contribute to the generation of homo “mirror image” at the vicinity of the electrode.

Space Charge Accumulation under the Effects of Temperature Gradient on Solid Dielectric Dc Cable
It is well known that existence and accumulation of space charge within the insulating material poses threat to the reliability in the operation of dc power cables. When the cables are loaded under high voltage direct current (HVDC), temperature gradient is developed across the insulation material. In this paper, commercial ac XLPE power cables were used under an application voltage of 80 kV dc...

Effects of cross-linking by-products (residues) of polyethylene on space charge accumulation and decay are investigated in the paper using the pulsed electro-acoustic technique. Space charge profiles have shown a great variation both in the charge initiation over the voltage ramping up process and later on long term stressing and decay (volts off) among the samples subjected to different condit...

Abstract The world's first commercial High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) transmission link was built in 1954 between the Swedish mainland and the island of Gotland. At that time, it was proved that HVDC transmission is technically feasible. Since then, HVDC cable systems have been used worldwide in electrical energy transportation. Most HV...
