This paper describes a study of electrical tree growth in DGEBA/MDA/SN system subjected to ac high electric field. The dielectric breakdown process, which consists of tree initiation, tree propagation and the complete puncture of the system was investigated. Dielectric breakdown always initiated from the needle tip where the electric field reinforcement is the highest. Higher temperature and voltage accelerated the tree growth and reduced the time to breakdown.

In this study, in order to observe treeing of prebreakdown phenomena, time variation of acoustic emission properties due to initiation and propagation of tree in LDPE was investigated under AC voltage. The experimental results were as following, pulse number and average amplitude of AE were increased along with near breakdown rather than tree initiation, also, according to increasing of applied voltage, tree propagation was blunted, while pulse number and average amplitude of AE was promoted. In each applied voltage, ${\phi}-a$ distributions during propagation of tree were changed to special patterns, skewness S and kurtosis K reflected well time variation of ${\phi}-a$ distribution patterns. It is thought that initiation and propagation state of tree can be easily monitored, so long as time variation of pulse number and average amplitude of AE, skewness Sand kurtosis K of ${\phi}-a$ distribution are always monitored.

Electrical discharges may occur in gas, liquid as well as solid insulating materials. This paper describes the investigation results on the discharges in air, silicone oil and low density polyethylene (LDPE) using needle plane electrode system under AC voltage of 50 Hz. The experimental results showed that for discharge in air (corona), discharge pulses were concentrated around the peak of applied voltage at negative half cycle. For silicone oil positive as well as negative discharges were observed which concentrated around the peak of applied voltage. The positive pulse number was smaller but the magnitude was higher than that of negative discharge. Discharges in void took place at wider range of phase of applied voltage. The unbalance in pulse number and magnitude similar to that of oil discharges were observed. For electrical treeing in LDPE, the discharges were spread before the zero cross of the applied voltage up to the peak at both positive and negative half cycles. The discharge pulse sequence analysis indicated that the PD occurrence in air, oil and void were strongly affected by the magnitude of applied voltage. However, for electrical treeing it was observed that the discharge occurrence was strongly affected by the time derivative of the applied voltage (dv/dt).

Dicumyl peroxide (DCP) is used for crosslinking agent in general. And the correlation between polyethylene and DCP is significant in particular radiation environment. On this paper, The effects on $Co^{60}{\gamma}$-ray irradiation of polyethylene doped dicumyl peroxide(DCP) were investigated. We experimented on electrical properties as following; electrical tree inception and growing type for applying AC step voltage, AC breakdown strength, volume resistivity, capacitance and dissipation factor at high frequency as increasing dosage. Also, chemical analysis was performed TGA, gel content.

It is shown that the ac breakdown strength, treeing phenomena, oxidation level, and crystallinity of unaged and aged distribution CV cables vary with XLPE insulations (characterizing anti-oxidation) and curing process. The maximum size of bow-tie tree in insulation influenced on the decrease of ac breakdown strength and the increase of oxidation level and crystallinity of XLPE according to aging time lead to increase the size and density of bow-tie trees.

This paper describes to access the insulation deterioration condition of the stator windings in six high voltage motors. Nondestructive tests have been carried out on stand-still motors. These tests include ac current increase rate($\Delta$I), delta tan delta(${\Delta}tan{\delta}$), and maximum partial discharge(PD). AC current and $tan{\delta}$ were measured by Schering bridge. The measurement of PD patterns were conducted using digital partial discharge detector. PD patterns were observed treeing and internal discharges in Motor 1 and 2. The stator windings of two motors were found to be in a poor condition and their were recommended to rewind. The stator. windings of four motors were judged to be in serviceable condition.

Electrical properties such as space charge accumulation and water tree length and physical properties such as tensile strength, elongation and degree of crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE)/ethylene n-butyl acrylate copolymer (EnBA) blends were investigated. It was found that electrical properties such as water tree length grown at a specific condition and AC breakdown strength are improved by blending the XLPE with EnBA. The EnBA having higher nBA content showed the better electrical properties in XLPE/EnBA blends. A further improvement of these properties was achieved when a small amount of crosslinking coagent was used in the preparation of XLPE/EnBA blends.

본 연구는 초음파 측정법을 사용하여 부분방전에 의한 에폭시 몰드형 전력변압기의 열화상태을 진단하기 위해 에폭시수지의 트리진전에 초음파신호를 분석하였으며, 또한 열화시간에 따른 트리길이, 방전전하량 및 초음파 펄스수의 특성을 조사하였다. 실험 결과, 애폭시수지에 발생된 트리는 수지령이면, 인가전압 16[kV]에 대한 트리 길이 및 트리 폭의 평균성 장률은 각각 0.014 및 0.026[mm/min] 이였으며, 20[kV]의 경우 이들 값은 각각 0.032 및 0.063[mm/min]으로 더욱 증가된 것으로 나타났다. 열화중기 이후 트리가 성장함에 따라 초음파 펄스수 및 부분방전 전하량은 급격히 증가된 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 초음파 펄스수는 방전전하량에 비례하여 증가되었다. 또한 몰드형 전력변압기의 초음파 측정시 기본 데이터를 얻기 위해 초음파 발진 및 수신장치를 사용하여 에폭시수지에 대한 초음파신호의 감쇄, 시간지연 및 지향특성도 조사하였다.

This paper presents a statistical approach to analyze electrical tree inception voltage, electrical tree breakdown voltage and tree breakdown time of unsaturated polyester resin subjected to AC voltage. The aim of this work was to show that Weibull and lognormal distribution may not be the most suitable distributions for analysis of electrical treeing data. In this paper, an investigation of statistical distributions of electrical tree inception voltage, electrical tree breakdown voltage and breakdown time data was performed on 108 leaf-like specimen samples. Revelations from the test results showed that Johnson SB distribution is the best fit for electrical tree inception voltage and tree breakdown time data while electrical tree breakdown voltage data is best suited with Wakeby distribution. The fitting step was performed by means of Anderson-Darling (AD) Goodness-of-fit test (GOF). Based on the fitting results of tree inception voltage, tree breakdown time and tree breakdown voltage data, Johnson SB and Wakeby exhibit the lowest error value respectively compared to Weibull and lognormal.

가스절연개폐기의 절연물로 사용되는 에폭시가 흡습환경에 노출될 경우 절연내력은 급격히 저하된다. 에폭시 절연물에 함유되어 있는 수분은 어느 일정 온도에서는 가스 내 수분과 평형을 이루고 있지만 온도변화에 따라 수분은 이동되며 또 고전압 인가 시 절연체 표면은 열화 되어 장기간에 걸쳐 침식과 함께 Treeing 현상을 유발시킨다. 본 연구에서는 에폭시 절연물의 절연특성에 미치는 수분의 영향을 파악하기 위하여 실 계통에서 사용된 제품에 대해 AC 내전압시험 및 재료분석을 시행하였다. 분석결과, 표면의 파괴전압은 주수량에 따라 건조섬락전압의 최대 1/5까지 저하되었다.
