Abstract :
In this paper, we investigate the tree growth and complete breakdown characteristics of samples with a layer of polymer film molded in EVA where their interfaces are perpendicular to an electric field using a point to plane electrode geometry, under ac or impulse voltage application. In addition, we compare the experimental results with those obtained from 3-dimensional tree simulation based on a DBM model considering growth probability
