Gw. Seman et al., EVALUATION OF 230 KV HPFF PIPE-TYPE CABLE WITH WRINKLED AND CREASED INSULATING TAPES, IEEE transactions on power delivery, 10(1), 1995, pp. 53-61
Severe collapse wrinkles and circumferential creases were discovered i
n the cellulose paper insulating tapes of a newly installed HPFF pipe-
type cable during splicing and terminating. An evaluation program was
developed to assess the electrical and mechanical integrity of the cab
le having wrinkled and creased insulating tapes. The test results indi
cated that the cable would perform satisfactorily in service.
