Abstract :
Observations of the space charge distribution around water trees are reviewed, and the nature of water trees analyzed from those results is discussed. It was concluded that at least two mechanisms are responsible for the formation of space charges. One is interfacial polarization due to the high conductivity of a tree channel, and the other is carrier injection from the tree tip at high electric fields
