Abstract
- To study the effect of semiconductive (SC) material on space charge accumulation in cable accessories, an accelerated aging of cable samples with cable accessories was carried out in the laboratory. The experimental results show accumulation of space charge in the cable insulation covered by a stress cone, whereas the space charge was negligible in the region wrapped by the accessory-reinforced insulation as well as regions not in contact with the accessory. With increased aging time, the space charge density gradually increased, and the axial distribution gradually extended. A comparative experiment on cable insulation slices was carried out using silicone rubber and EVA SC material as the upper electrodes to determine the cause of the space charge accumulation. The results showed that a large quantity of heteropolar charges accumulated near the silicone rubber SC upper electrode, whereas the charges near the EVA SC electrode were negligible. It was concluded that due to the weak charge conducting ability of the silicone rubber SC material used as the electrode, space charges cannot escape from the stress cone and thus accumulate on the outside of the cable insulation at the stress cone position. This paper shows that the SC material used in cable accessories plays an important role in space charge accumulation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
