Abstract
An arrangement and method to control electrical stress in a region of high electric field strength associated with high voltage equipment, such as cable terminations and joints, includes a semiconductive layer of stress control material and an electrically conductive layer positioned over and in electrical contact with said semiconductive layer in the region of highest electrical stress associated with a discontinuity in the electric field of the equipment. The combination of the conductive layer and the semiconductive stress control layer improves the discharge extinction and the impulse performance of the electrical equipment with which it is used.
