Abstract: The influence of polarity, polarity reversal, repeated stressing, waveshape and conductor size on the impulse puncture voltage for three sizes of single-conductor mass-impregnated 33-kV cable has been investigated. Experimental results are discussed and conclusions drawn from which a test for incorporation in a cable specification and the revision of B.S. 923: 1940 for cables has been suggested.
