Abstract :
This research explores the basic hypothesis that microporosity plays a significant role in the mechanism of breakdown at high stress(15 to 30 times operating stress). The relative performance of gas-impregnated cable models on volt-time studies at several pressures and with several gases is analyzed using established gas breakdown techniques.
