Abstract :
RECENT EXPERIMENT on fully impregnated cable-type paper insulation, has shown that under certain conditions use of a paper of low density results in a higher dielectric strength than does the use of a paper of higher density.1 It has also been shown that failure of such insulation usually begins in the oil channels between successive turns of paper tape.
