Abstract
The Electric Research Council published rigid specifications for cable supplierswho wished to participate in the Waltz Mill program for Solid Dielectric Cables. This paper deals with problems encountered during the conduct of the qualification tests, and the solutions to these problems. Designs of the 138 kV cable and splice are discussed along with test data which show these basic electrical and thermal characteristics. The paper includes sections dealing with terminators and connectors. Finally, the author reviews the installation at the test site and compares preliminary test data obtained there with the test data observed in the laboratory.
