Cable aging phenomena under accelerated aging conditions

Condition Monitoring Uncertainties and Thermal - Radiation Multistress Accelerated Aging Tests for Nuclear Power Plant Cables: A Review

“…The contribution of temperature stress during the irradiation period adds more to the degradation of the insulation material, as the radiation-induced chemical reaction would be changed as the temperature changes [29]. In the Fig.…”

“…Another important factor which affects the EaB and TS of the insulation material in cables is heterogeneous oxidation. This phenomenon occurs during the oxidation when the surface of the material is more exposed to the oxygen as compared to the section of the insulation near to the conductor [7,29], as a consequence more [7] degradation is observed at the surface, affecting the mechanical properties of the material.…”

What Is the Effect of Outer Jacket Degradation on the Communication Parameters? A Case Study of the Twisted Pair Cable Applied in the Railway Industry

“…The so-called "soft" fault may be the result of outer jacket damage or an aging effectparameters of electronic components, connections, and transmission lines are subject to an aging effect. Selected aspects of accelerated aging of the insulation of power cables (the impact of temperature and radiation) are described in [8,9]. Unfortunately, the up-to-date literature provides no solution (lack of a model) for the impact of a specific fault condition (caused by the outer jacket) on the transmission reliability (lost communication) within railway communication.…”

Cable Replacement Considering Optimal Wind Integration and Network Reconfiguration

“…Consideration of system aspects in replacement planning was first done for ageing transformers, which are arguably the most important components. Hence, the ageing and replacement of cables and transformers was reviewed and classified into four categories: a) Ageing processes in cable [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] and transformers [11][12][13][14][15][16]; b) Power system analyses with ageing components [17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24]; c) Replacement of individual/ populations of cable [2,[25][26][27] and transformers [28]- [31]; and d) Cable and transformer replacement based on power system analyses [32][33][34].…”

“…Accelerated cable ageing using elevated voltages and temperatures is studied in [3,4,6], comparative ageing with and without voltage transients in [5], mechanisms of impulse strength degradation in [7], impact of several operational factors on cable life expectancy in [9] and degradation of the conductor screen in [10]. This group of papers studies the physical characteristics of cable ageing when subjected to different stresses and environmental conditions.…”
