An introduction to a cutting-edge, environmentally friendly insulation material
The installation and maintenance of high-voltage cables is an infrastructure problem with potentially major environmental impacts. In recent years, polypropylene has emerged as an environmentally friendly material for insulating high-voltage cables, particularly HVDC power cables and HVAC power cables. Polypropylene Cable Insulation begins with an introduction to high-voltage cables and the development of polypropylene insulation before describing the dielectric properties and applications of this insulation in both HVDC and HVAC contexts. The result is a thorough, accessible guide to an essential part of any environmentally friendly power grid.
Readers will also find: - Detailed explorations of the relationship between space charge behaviors and trap characteristics - Discussion of topics including polarization and dielectric relaxation, electrical treeing degradation, partial discharge, and more - Graphs and tables illustrating experimental results
Polypropylene Cable Insulation is ideal for electrical power engineers, power transmission system operators, and any engineers or researchers working in power transmission and/or distribution cables.
