Methods of test for the evaluation of water treeing in insulating materials
Prescribes methods of test for the evaluation of water treeing in polyethylene (PE) and crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) compounds, as a means to assess their relative performance under alternating (a.c.) electric stress, in the presence of water. Two methods are described, method I covering the evaluation of insulating materials alone, and method II covering the evaluation of insulating sandwiches consisting of an insulating material in intimate contact with semiconducting screens.
