In this study, we have investigated the dielectric breakdown by measuring AC (60Hz) breakdown strength of the fluids in accordance with IEC 156 standard and have compared the results with references. It was found that the dielectric breakdown voltage of pure transformer oil is around 12 [kV] with the gap distance of 1.5mm between electrodes. In case of our transformer oil based magnetic fluids with 0.1% < ${\Phi}$(volume concentration of magnetic particles) <0.6%, the dielectric breakdown voltage shows above 30 [kV], which is 2.5 times higher than that of pure transformer oil. It can be explained by the changed ionization process by adding nanoparticles in pure transformer oil, which is due to trapped fast electrons and slow negative nanoparticles. Moreover, in case of the fluid with applied magnetic field, the dielectric breakdown voltage increases above 40 [kV], which is 3.3 times higher than that of pure transformer oil.

Experiments of 2 type on insulating compounds accomplished to change PVC using in URD(Underground) power cable jacketing. one was DB(Dielectric Breakdown) test on the pure base resins and the others were WVT(Water Vapor Transmission) test on the compounds which contained C/B(Carbon Black), anti-oxidant to base resin. a kind of specimens made by pressing to resin of pellet or lump form was HDPE(High Density Polyethylene), MDPE(Medium Density Polyehylene), LDPE(Low Density Polyethylene), LLDPE(Linear Low Density Polyethylene), PVC(Polyvinyl Chloride). As a results of AC DB and WVT test, we saw that strength of Insulation was HDPE> LLDPE = MDP E> LDPE and WVT ratio was HDPE

In order to develop electrical insulation materials, epoxy/micro-silica composite (EMC) and epoxy/micro-silica/nano-silicate composite (EMNC) were prepared, and their tensile and flexural strength, AC insulation breakdown strength and thermal conductivity and thermal expansion coefficient were compared. Nano-silicate was prepared in an epoxy matrix by our AC electric field process. All properties of the neat epoxy were improved by the addition of micro-silica, which was improved much further by the addition of nano-silicate to the EMC system.

Occurring forest fire or burning bushes beneath overhead transmission lines have caused breakdown disturbances of the system in many countries. In this study, experiments for flashover characteristics in the simulated condition of vertical power lines were conducted so as to investigate the reduction in insulation strength caused by combustion flame. As the results of an experimental investigation, it is demonstrated that flame can reduce breakdown voltages of the model lines according to height(h) of flame. The breakdown voltages were decreased with decreasing the height(h) of flame it can be seen that the average reduction of flashover levels, in comparison with the no-flame case, are 46.2[%] for h=9[cm] and 62.5[%] for h=3[cm] when ac voltage is applied.

High temperature superconductor can only be applied against an engineering specofication that has to be determined for each particular application form the design requirements for economic viability and for operation margins in service. However, in order to realize the HTS transformer, it is necessary to establish the high voltage insulation technique in cryogenic temperature. Therefore, the composite insulation of double pancake coil type transformer are described and AC breakdown voltage characteristics of liquid nitrogen(LN$_2$) under HTS pancake coil electrode made by Bi-2223/Ag are studied. The Breakdown of LN$_2$ is dominated electrode shape and distance. The influence of pressure on breakdown voltage is discussed with th different electrode. For the electrical insulation design of turn-to-turn insulation for the HTS transformer, we tested breakdown strength of insulation sheet under varying pressure. And we investigated surface flashover properties of LN$_2$ and complex conition of cryogenic gaseous nitrogen(CGN$_2$) obove a LN$_2$ surface. The surface voltage of GFRP was measured as a function of thickness and electrode distance in LN$_2$ and complex condition of CGN$_2$ above a LN$_2$ surface. this research presented information of electrical insulation design for double pancake coil(DPC) type HTS transformer.

Chlorosulfonated polyethylene (CSPE) was not flooded seawater and flooded seawater & freshwater for 5 days, respectively, and these samples are referred to as BSF(before seawater flooding) and ASFF(after seawater & freshwater flooding), respectively. The apparent density, dissipation factor, relative permittivity, melting temperature, dielectric breakdown time and increased time of applied voltage are higher than those of BSF, but the insulating resistance, dielectric strength, percent elongation and glass transition temperature of ASFF are lower than those of BSF. The differential temperature of those is $0.026{\sim}0.028(^{\circ}C)$ after AC and DC voltage is applied to ASFF, respectively, and the differential temperature of those is $0.013{\sim}0.037(^{\circ}C)$ after AC and DC voltage is applied to BSF, respectively. In the case AC and DC voltage is applied to ASFF as well as BSF, the variations in temperature of AC voltage are higher than those of DC voltage. It is investigated that dielectric loss due to dissipation factor ($tan{\delta}$) is related to electric dipole conduction current. It is certain that the ionic (electron or hole) leakage current was increased by conducting ions such as $Na^+$, $Cl^-$, $Mg^{2+}$, $SO_4^{2-}$, $Ca^{2+}$ and $K^+$, those are related to cured atoms of O and S that relatively increased after seawater flooding.

This paper presents the results of performance evaluation of silicone treatment technique which was developed for the insulation rehabilitation of water tree aged XLPE power cables. We treated the water tree aged 325 [$\textrm{mm}^2$] CN/CV cables with silicone, and then analyzed the degree of insulation rehabilitation as a function of time. AC breakdown test was conducted to evaluate insulation rehabilitation. The diagnosis test using relaxation current measurement and the characteristic analysis of insulation were also performed to estimate silicone treated cable. AC breakdown strength of silicone treated cable for one year was increased, resulting from the chemical reaction between silicone fluid and water. This experiment showed that the silicone treatment technique was effective for insulation rehabilitation of the water tree aged cables.

The superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) consists of superconducting coil for limiting the fault current and cryogenic cooling system for keeping the coil in superconducting condition. The study on the insulation design for superconducting coil and cryogenic cooling system should be elaborately performed to develop a high voltage SFCL. In this paper, insulation design of solenoid coil for 13.2kV/630A SFCL is performed through the AC dielectric breakdown test and lightning impulse dielectric strength test. The dependence of dielectric characteristics on the magnitude of liquid nitrogen pressure is also investigated. Through the investigation, it is verified that dielectric characteristics of sub-cooled nitrogen are strongly enhanced by the pressurization. The electrical insulation design of 13.2kV/630A SFCL is performed by applying the experimental results. The successful insulation design for development of 13.2kV/630A SFCL is confirmed by AC dielectric breakdown tests.
