Abstract :
The paper gives an outline of ongoing work on interface reliability. It gives an outline of progress made within Cigre as well as at KEMA. The sample cell is found to perform quite well. Pressure is found to compensate for a certain roughness, which is in agreement with common conviction. However, the presence of a lubricant is not always found to improve the performance of the interface. One of the reasons can be that the reference interfaces are already very good. On the other hand, there are more publications reporting that lubricant does not always improve an interface
