Experimental analysis of aged XLPE cable using return voltage measurement
Abstract:
XLPE cables are widely used for underground power transmission and distribution. Therefore, condition assessment of cable insulation is important. In this work, return voltage measurement (RVM) is carried out to diagnose and characterize temperature-humidity aged XLPE cable insulation.
The XLPE insulation is aged under constant stress and cyclic stress. The effects of both temperature and humidity are considered while aging the samples. It is observed that return voltage characteristics change with aging conditions. The measured parameters, including maximum return voltage, time to reach maximum return voltage, and slope of the rise of return voltage, are recorded.
The calculated parameters, including p-factor and reliability factor, are obtained using the MATLAB curve fitting tool. Both measured and calculated parameters are found to change with aging conditions. With aging, the parameter values decrease compared with unaged XLPE. Therefore, the measured and calculated parameters can be used as aging markers. It is also observed that the percentage of relative humidity plays an important role in aging.
