Abstract :
This paper presents findings on dielectric response measurements on field aged and new medium voltage XLPE cables using a non-destructive frequency domain technique. Emphasis is laid on the laboratory and field acquired data interpretation. Results presented in this paper shows possible error being introduced into the judgement of water tree deterioration when the influence of the cable terminations is not properly considered.
