Abstract :
Effects of ionic impurities on the dielectric breakdown of the crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) were studied using aqueous electrolytes. It was found that the AC breakdown strength of XLPE decreases considerably when the ions are present in the electrodes composed of aqueous electrolyte. Details of results were described
