A model for the long-term behavior of charging current is proposed. It is based on the "universal" law of Jonscher (1983), where a threshold term, function of the steady-state current, has been introduced. On the basis of several sets of data relevant to different insulating polymeric materials, it is shown that the DC conductivity can be evaluated, in many cases, even by not too-long test times. Correct estimates of the activation energy of conduction, as well as of polarization processes, can be obtained by means of the model.<>

This paper describes the new results of investigations on a rapid thermal endurance test method for insulating materials-TPS. (1) The functional exposure test in the TPS may be performed by means of the changing temperature technique. To do so may save both testing time and costs, and raise the reliability of the TPS method. Hence, it would be of important significance. (2) The equation of calculating Ep in the TPS has excellent repeatability, which is one of the main advantages of TPS, and not so called insensitivity. (3) TG tests play an auxiliary role in TPS, this is decided by the principle of the conventional aging method, and should be reasonable and beneficial to the accuracy of TPS. (4) Since there is a statistical linear relation between E and f for a category of insulating materials, as well as the verification results of many new and old materials, this has confirmed that the accuracy of the TPS as against conventional aging is satisfactory. The TPS method may be used to evaluate thermal endurance for new insulating materials.<>

Insulation degradation of high voltage equipment has been one of the major concerns of electricity supply authorities. Amongst the many indicators that can be used to assess the insulation condition of high voltage equipment, partial discharge testing has been one of the most effective diagnostic tools for monitoring the condition of electrical insulation. A new detector has been developed for the measurement of partial discharges in high voltage equipment using radio transmission techniques. Experiments carried out in the laboratory have shown that the new detector has many advantages over the conventional PD detectors. It is believed that this is initial in the PD detection area in the world.<>

Recent study of the electric properties of perfluoro polyethers (PFPE) have shown that these molecules may be useful as insulating fluids in power transformers and capacitors. To assure their environmental compatibility, a study has been performed of the products formed in the course of electrical discharges of controlled energy. This study includes an analysis of the gaseous products formed. In this paper the first obtained results of gas chromatography and mass spectra analysis of the decomposition compounds produced after several breakdowns in PFPE are presented and discussed.<>

The electron transport mechanism through polyimide (PI) Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films, with monolayer thickness of 0.4 nm, was investigated by means of current-voltage (I-V) measurement and Inelastic Electron Tunneling Spectroscopy (IETS). Tunnel junctions with a structure of Au/PI/Pb were examined. It was found that electrons tunnel across the PI LB films without loss of their own energy. Tunnel junctions with a PORPI monolayer sandwiched between PI layers were also examined. Here PORPI is polyimide containing tetraphenylporphyrin moiety. It was found that electrons tunnel across the junctions, accompanying the energy loss due to the excitation of vibrational modes of PORPI molecules and the excitation of electron transitions in PORPI molecules.<>

In this paper, it is shown that a semiconducting layer has an effect on the void discharge deterioration. Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) block with an artificial needle void at a tip of semiconductive electrode (SE) was used as a sample. The tree initiation voltage was measured. The discharge magnitude distribution was measured by the partial discharge pulse measurement system (PDPMS). At the same time, the void condition and the tree growth were observed by CCD camera. These measurements were carried out by SEs of several resistivities. As a result, by measuring the discharge magnitude distribution, it became clear that SE inhibited the void discharge. It was confirmed that the electrode inhibited tree growth. The highest tree initiation voltage and the lowest tree extension speed were shown at a resistivity of 2 k/spl Omega//spl middot/cm.<>

A degradation of silicone rubber for polymer insulator housing by ultraviolet radiation was studied. The following techniques were used to investigate surface degradation of silicone rubber: Measurement of Contact Angle; Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) Analysis; Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FT-IR) Spectroscopy; Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) Observation. It was found from the investigation that chemical composition near the surface was changed significantly and that hydrophobicity was reduced under severe ultraviolet radiation.<>

To study the high-field AC conduction mechanisms of nonpolar polymers, the AC dissipation current waveforms are observed. The shapes of the AC dissipation current waveforms in the high-held and high-temperature region become the triangle shape in spite of the sinusoidal voltage application, suggesting the nonlinear electric field dependence of instantaneous AC conductivity. The fast rising AC ramp voltage application method is developed as the new technique to examine the dielectric properties in the very short time range. This method enables the measurement of the variations of the high-field dielectric properties and the dissipation current waveform immediately after the voltage application. The new measurements were carried out on electron beam (EB) irradiated crosslinked polyethylene (IR-XLPE) film. The dissipation current waveforms in the high temperature region show the peak in the former part of each half cycle and quickly decrease in the latter part of each half cycle of a full waveform, which seems to show that the carrier injection from the electrode is assisted by the heterospace charge in the region near the electrode.<>
