15、s, each containing a conical-shaped defect, are subjected to an applied voltage of5 kV at 1 kHz and 23 6 2C in an aqueous conductive solution of 1.0 N NaCl sodium chloride (NaCl) for 30 days. This controlledconical defect is created by a sharp needle with an included angle of 60 and a tip radius of

16、3 m. The electrical stress at the defecttip is enhanced and can be is estimated by the Masons Hyperbolic point-to-plane stress enhancement equation.4 This enhancedelectrical stress initiates the formation of a vented water-tree grown from the defect tip. Each treed specimen is stained and sliced.The

17、 water-tree length and point-to-plane specimen thickness measured under microscope are used to calculate a ratio that is definedas the resistance to water-tree growth.5.

19、. Two types of water-trees are formed. Bow tie trees (within the dielectric) and vented water-treesformed from conductive/insulating material interface into the insulating material. The water-trees referred to in this test methodare the vented type.The insulating material is the solid dielectric org

21、 method provides comparative data. The degree of correlation with the performance in service has not beenestablished.5.3 The standard test conditions are designed to grow a sufficient water-tree length for most solid dielectric insulating materialsof interest before electrical breakdown occurs. Mate

A shorter t

26、s.Temperatures shouldshall not exceed the softening or melting point of the material or 10 to 15Cbelow the boiling point of the salt solution. Any nonstandard conditions shouldshall be reported along with the results.5.5 Tree-growth rates generally increase with the test frequency. An acceleration f

27、actor due to frequency is given by (f/60)kwhere f is the test frequency and k is between 0.6 and 0.7. The test frequency of 1 kHz is selected to accelerate the water-treegrowth. However, the there is the possibility that the chemical nature of oxidized products from water-treeing may be different at

28、different frequency ranges.5.6 Two assumptions for this test method are: (1) all tested materials grow trees in the same power law kinetic manner and (2)the time under test conditions of 30 days is long enough to establish the difference in water-tree growth. If there is a doubt, at leastthree diffe

29、rent testing times (such as 30, 90, and 180 days) shouldshall be used to verify their comparative performance and disclosetheir kinetic nature of water-tree growth. Of course, it is also assumed that all water-treed regions are oxidized regions that canare able to be stained for optical observation.

30、 Different materials may also have different temperaturesThe softening temperatureof different materials will require different temperature and times to stain the oxidized (treed) regions due to their differentsoftening temperature.regions6.

Hazards8.1 WarningLethal voltages are a potential hazard during the performance o

43、f this test method. It is essential that the testapparatus and all associated equipment that may be electrically connected to it be properly designed and installed for safeoperation.8.2 Solidly ground all electrically conductive parts that may be are possible for a person to contact during the test.

44、 Providemeans for use at the completion of any test to ground any parts which were at high voltage during the test or have the potentialfor acquiring an induced charge during the test or retaining a charge even after disconnection of the voltage source.

45、rect procedures for performing tests safely. When making high-voltage tests, particularly incompressed gas, oil, water, or aqueous solution, it is possible for the energy released at breakdown to be sufficient to result in fire,explosion, or rupture of the test chamber. Design test equipment, test c

If the potential for fire exists, have fire suppressionequipment available.WarningWater in the test tank is gradually evaporated. Keeping the water level constant is
