Abstract :
This paper describes the design, manufacture and tests on a 500/550 kV cable and joint. The cable successfully withstood 1550 kV impulse and 1290 kV switching surge established by Electric Research Council for the Waltz Mill field tests. The 60 Hz tests demonstrated the cable with either a splice, insulated to 2 times the insulation O.D. or 1.5 times the insulation O.D. had adequate ac dielectric strength.
