Abstract

A high temperature superconducting (HTS) DC cable is ideal for transmitting large amount of electrical power over a long distance. However, it must be designed to operate reliably within the constraints of the electrical systems. Therefore, a study of the electrical insulation is important to develop a HTS DC cable because it is operated in a cryogenic high voltage environment. This paper discusses the dielectric constructions of the cable and summarizes the experiment results on the DC and impulse dielectric characteristics of the insulation material, in sheet form and mini-model cable configuration. This shows how to design such insulation to be operated reliably. These studies are essential for the insulation design of a HTS DC cable operating in cryogenic environment.
