In this paper, the electrical properties of liquid insulating oil were analyzed by changing the ambient temperature change at 10℃ in-tervals from 0℃ to 30℃ through an insulation breakdown experiment in order to analyze the insulation performance of liquid in-sulating oil that varies according to temperature changes. As a result, it was confirmed through experiments that the lower the am-bient temperature, the higher the insulation breakdown voltage, depending on both the electrode shape and the electrode interval, and it was determined that the lower the ambient temperature, the higher the insulation performance of the liquid insulating oil.

We analyzed the correlation between breakdown voltage(BDV) of liquid nitrogen(LN2) and factors. The chosen factors affecting the breakdown are the diameter of electrode, gap length, temperature of LN2, and pressure of LN2. The BDV of LN2 was increased with increasing the diameter, the gap length and the pressure. And The BDV of LN2 was increased with decreasing the temperature. However, correlation coefficient was different from each other depending on the situation. The BDV exhibited a very high correlation coefficient of 0.92227 to dependence on the diameter. And a very high correlation coefficient of 0.94980 to dependence on the pressure under sphere(D 7.5 mm)-plane electrode. When the pressure is applied, sphere-plane electrode is the correlation coefficient was higher than that of the needle-plane electrode. It shows the dependence of a temperature coefficient of -0.758290 ~ -0.39946 under needle-plane electrode.

According to the increasing power demand for the future construction of many underground cables will be required. However, construction of new ducts for power cables will be more difficult. Therefore, research work for realizing the high temperature superconducting(HTS) cable has advanced, where the development of electrical insulating system at cryogenic temperature is one of the major researches. For an electrical insulation design of HTS cable, it is important to understand not only breakdown but also partial discharge and dielectric loss($tan{\delta}$) in liquid nitrogen/paper composite insulation system. In this paper, we investigated breakdown characteristics in liquid nitrogen/paper composite insulation system for the application to HTS cable. And, we studied the breakdown characteristics of the multi-layer and butt gap of the insulation papers in liquid nitrogen. Also, we measured dielectric loss($tan{\delta}$) of the mini-model Cable made of TERLAM IPP.

Electrical breakdown characteristics of liquid nitrogen($LN_2$) used as both coolant and insulator for high $T_c$ superconductor system are very important. This paper presents dynamic breakdown characteristics fo $LN_2$ by quench phenomena of thermal bubble under high electric field. Experimental results revealed dynamic breakdown voltage fell down drastically compared with the static breakdown voltage without the quench. Because of increasing heat power, bubble size becomes big and breakdown voltage decreases. The breakdown voltage mechanism of $LN_2$ depends on thermal bubble effect. In the Electrode arrangement, electrical breakdown voltage of horizontal arrangement appears lower than that of vertical arrangement. Also, we observed the behavior of thermal bubbles in $LN_2$ which were generated after quench using camera.

In this paper the experiments of insulation characteristics by temperature change of $SF_6$ gas and insulation characteristics about liquid $SF_6$ in GIS(Gas Insulated Switchgear) were described. From this result, at low temperature, the breakdown voltage was increased with a drop of temperature and an increase of the inner pressure in GIS. The ability of insulation in liquid $SF_6$ was higher than that of the highly pressurized $SF_6$ gas. A liquid $SF_6$ discharge characteristics was caused by bubble formed evaporation of liquid $SF_6$ and bubble when high voltage apply to electrode. Corona was happened to weak bubble and was proceed to new bubble breakdown.

Experimental investigations of AC breakdown characteristics of liquid nitrogen in the environment to restrain boil bubbles are presented in this paper. The environment to restrain vapor bubble in the liquid nitrogen is both increasing pressure and decreasing temperature. Measurements of the breakdown voltage of liquid nitrogen in the environment to restrain vapor bubbles are investigated under AC high voltage in a quasi-uniform and non-uniform electrical field for pressures and temperatures ranging from 0 to 0.5 MPa and 77 K to 65 K respectively.

For practical electrical insulation design of high temperature superconducting (HTS) power apparatuses, knowledge of the dielectric behavior of both liquid nitrogen (L$N_2$) and subcooled liquid nitrogen (SL$N_2$) are essential. To achieve SL$N_2$ at atmospheric pressure, cryostat was designed and constructed. By pumping up the L$N_2$ in the outer dewar, the temperature of L$N_2$ in the inner dewar at atmospheric pressure can be controlled. The breakdown characteristics of L$N_2$ in quasi-uniform and non-uniform electrical fields for temperatures ranging from 77 K to 65 K at atmospheric pressure and pressure ranging from 0.1 to 0.5 MPa were investigated experimentally. The experimental data suggested that the breakdown voltage (BDV) of L$N_2$ is both highly temperature and pressure dependent. We also carried out statistical analysis of the experimental results using the Weibull distribution. The Weibull shape parameter m for the sphere-to-plane electrodes in SL$N_2$ was estimated to be 11 to 18.

Liquid nitrogen has many adventages. It is cheaper than other cooling medium. It is easy to obtain high purity. It's utilized with easy. In future, liquid nitrogen is able to be accepted cooling medium for the superconducting and cryogenic applicated equipments. Cryogenic liquid may be atmospheric pressure state because thermoinsulation is ineffective, airtight decreasing by long time using and bubble occured by flowing current. If it is to be atmospheric pressure state, the electrical insulation strength is dropped and processed partial discharge, finally breakdown. Processing of breakdown has anticipated by measuring radiated-electromagnetic wave which is happened in time of breakdown. There is a measurement of radiated electromagnetic wave as a method that proceeding breakdown is anticipated. In this paper, radiated electromagnetic wave was measured in arc discharge by above conditions as a basic experiment.

In this study, we discussed the characteristics of breakdown and surface flashover of FRP in L$N_2$ for applying it to spacer of a superconducting power equipment. Fiberglass reinforced plastic(FRP) has high breakdown puncture strength and has high mechanical strength. So the research of its dielectric properties have been conducted in liquid nitrogen($LN_2$). We measured breakdown voltage of FRP and distinguished four types of surface flashover along solid insulator with arrangement of electrodes and measured the surface flashover voltages of each types of electrode arrangement. The type of a electrode set at the back of the insulator showed the worst dielectric property. The property of surface flashover depending on pressure was tested.

In this paper, in order to analyze high electrical insulation and cooling performance using mineral oil, the liquid insulating oil was changed in electrode shape and distance between electrodes to compare and analyze electrical characteristics according to equal electric field, quasi-equivalent electric field, and unequal electric field. As a result, the breakdown voltages were 36,875 V and 36,875 V in the form of sphere-sphere and plate-plate electrodes with equal electric fields. The breakdown voltage was 31,475 V in the sphere-plate electrode type, which is a quasi-equilibrium field, and the breakdown voltage was 28,592 V, 27,050 V, and 22,750 V in the needle-needle, sphere-needle, and needle-plate electrode types, which are unequal fields. Through this, it is possible to know the difference in breakdown voltage according to the type of electric field. The more equal the field, the higher the breakdown voltage, and the more unequal field, the lower the breakdown voltage. The difference in insulation breakdown voltage could be seen depending on the type of electric field, the insulation breakdown voltage was higher for the more equal electric field, and the insulation breakdown voltage was lower for the more unequal electric field. Also, it was confirmed that the closer the distance between the electrodes, the higher the insulation breakdown voltage, the higher the insulation breakdown current, and the insulation breakdown voltage and the insulation breakdown current were proportional.
