The present invention relates to a liquid composition for electrical insulation including a dielectric fluid and an additive, the additive being dissolved in the dielectric fluid and having a 1excitation energy which is lower than the 1excitation energy of the dielectric fluid.

Dielectric fluids having reduced streamer speed

A device for controlling an electric field at a high voltage component includes an inner deflector electrically connected to live voltage component; a resistive layer adapted for field control, arranged along the high voltage component, and electrically connected to the live high voltage component and electrically connected to a grounded part, the resistive layer having a nonlinear current-voltage characteristics; an insulating layer extending but ending without reaching the end of the resistive layer; and a semi-conducting or conducting layer arranged on the insulating layer and extending towards the resistive layer and past the end of the insulating layer, thereby defining an outer triple point at the intersection of the resistive layer, the insulating layer, and the semi-conducting or conducting layer. The resistive layer has first, second, and third adjacent sections, wherein a portion of the first section extends below the inner deflector.

Device for electric field control

A direct current cable termination apparatus for terminating a high voltage direct current cable, the apparatus includes a current-carrying device comprising a terminal portion of the direct current cable, the cable includes an electrical conductor, a circumferential electrically insulating layer located outside of the electrical conductor, and a circumferential conductive shield located outside of the insulating layer and the electrical conductor. The apparatus includes a housing having an outer shell, and the current-carrying device is adapted to extend in the axial direction of the outer shell. Along at least a part of the axial extension of the current-carrying device the outer shell extends axially with a space between its inner periphery and the current-carrying device.

High voltage direct current cable termination apparatus

An electrical bushing for providing electrical insulation of a conductor extending through the bushing is disclosed. The bushing includes: one conductive foil concentrically arranged around the conductor location; and one FGM part, made from a field grading material and partly arranged in the extension of part of a foil edge of a conductive foil. The FGM part and the conductive foil, in the extension of which the FGM part is arranged, are in electrical contact.

The current-carrying device is adapted to extend in the axial direction of the outer shell. Along at least a part of the axial extension of the current-carrying device the outer shell extends axially with a space between its inner periphery and the current-carrying device. The housing is adapted to separate the space from an atmosphere outside the outer shell, and the space is filled with an electrically insulating fluid.
