Abstract
Dielectric response analysis is one approach for the condition assessment of high voltage insulation systems, and measurement of the dissipation factor or tan δ is widely used in practice. This article presents an experimental study of DF measurement over the frequency range from 1 mHz to 50 Hz. Three different short sections of service-aged 11-kV cross-linked polyethylene cable are used as test specimens. Low-voltage polarisation / depolarisation current and frequency domain spectroscopy techniques are employed in the investigation. Following the experimental work, numerical analysis is carried out utilizing the Davidson-Cole (D-C) model. To optimize the final parameters of the model, numerical simulation is performed using 3 or 4 R-C branches with different values of Jonscher and D-C constants. It is shown that results from numerical simulation agree well with the experimental results over the tested frequency range.
