Abstract :
In this paper we present some aspects concerning the initiation and development of water trees in accelerated aged needle-plane specimens, made of low density polyethylene, and we make a correlation between the water tree shape the type and the degree of specimen degradation and the intensity of the electric field used for producing water trees
