ABSTRACT In order to check the possibility of raising the service
temperature of installed power cables, PD degradation characteristics in
materials for cable insulation and their interfaces were investigated at
high temperatures (70-110°C). With increasing temperature, the tree
inception voltage of XLPE bulk decreased below 90°C and increased
above 90°C. The degradation at the interfaces was also investigated
and the EPR surface showed peculiar type of degradation with void
formation. Possible causes of the void formation are increase of
pressure of gas due to decomposition of EPR, additives and impurities,
desorption from EPR surface and so on
