Abstract

In this work, an experimental study of the spectrum of the emitted radiation during dielectric ageing of solid polymeric insulating materials during HVDC stress is made. For this purpose, samples of various insulators with a relative permittivity e_r=2.5-4.5 (e.g. press-pan, pertinax, etc.) were used. The experimental results show that the spectrum of the emitted electromagnetic radiation during dielectric ageing of the examined materials under HVDC stress extends to the ultraviolet region. This is in agreement with other results regarding AC or impulse voltage stress.
