Abstract

The thermal history of XLPE insulated cable during heating cycle voltage test specified by IEC 840 was examined by DSC(differential scanning calorimetry) method, of which the principal is on the basis of the phenomenon that the crystals in polyethylene are rearranged as it is annealed near/below the melting temperature. From the result, it can be estimated that XLPE insulation near the conductor was exposed at the temperature of about $100^{\circ}C$ with the electrical stress through the test.
