Insulation Properties and Interface Defect Simulation of Distribution Network Cable Accessories Under Moisture Condition

To fully understand the distribution network cable accessories’ moisture fault, the variation in insulation parameters of the cable main insulation of cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) and the cable accessory reinforced insulation of silicone rubber (SIR) under different moisture conditions are studied experimentally. Furthermore, the effects of typical moisture defect forms and moisture positions ...
