  • Abstract
    It is well known that electrical insulation may be damaged by corona generated when the system is subjected to extreme voltages. We investigated the effects of corona on conventional, high-pressure polyethylene as a part of our program of basic research on electrical insulation for possible use in high voltage cable.
