Abstract
Two theories of electrical failures in cables, at test voltages, are presented; one, known as the maximum stress theory, is based on critical potential gradients, and the other, known as the ballast theory, is based on critical current densities. Data collected by the Insulated Conductors Committee of the AIEE are evaluated in relation to these theories.
