Abstract

The occurrence of partial discharge is one of the challenges that limit the design options and voltage ratings of gaseous helium cooled high temperature superconducting (HTS) cables. The measurements of partial discharge inception voltage (PDIV) at cryogenic temperatures on several model cables were used in the optimization of the dielectric design of a 30 m long HTS power cable, which was successfully fabricated and tested at DC currents up to 6 kA and voltage of 3.5 kV RMS. Details of the PDIV measurements are described.
