Abstract: Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) high voltage cables have been widely used in power transmission and distribution systems. Ageing deterioration of XLPE insulating material can not be avoidable due to its made of polymeric material. This paper mentions to the experimental results on artificial ageing test of 22 kV XLPE cable for distribution system application in Thailand. XLPE insulating material of 22 kV cable was sliced to 60-70 µm in thick and subjected to ac high voltage stress at 23◦C, 60◦C, 75◦C and 90◦C. The specimens were tested under different electrical stress levels varying from 50kV/mm to 130kV/mm. Testing voltage was constantly applied to the specimen until breakdown. Five specimens were tested at each temperature level and each voltage stress level. Breakdown voltage and average time to breakdown were used to evaluate life time of insulating material. Furthermore, the physical model by J. P. Crine for predicts life time of XL!
PE insulating material was adopted as life time model and was determined in order to compare the experimental results. Acceptable life time results were obtained from Crine's model comparing with the experimental result. In addition, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) for chemical analysis and scanning electron microscope (SEM) for physical analysis were conducted on tested specimens.
