PD IEC TS 62836 provides an efficient and reliable procedure to test the internal electric field in
the insulating materials used for high-voltage applications, using the pressure wave propagation (PWP) method.
It is suitable for a sample with homogeneous insulating materials and an electric field higher than 1 kV/mm, but it is also dependent on the thickness of the sample and the pressure wave generator.
PD IEC TS 62836 on pressure wave propagation method is relevant to:
The pressure wave propagation (PWP) method is used by many researchers to measure the space charge distribution and the internal electric field distribution in insulators.
PD IEC TS 62836 provides information on the principle of the PWP method, electrode materials, pressure pulse wave generation, set-up of the measurement, measurement procedure, data processing for the experimental measurement required for measurement of the internal electric field.
As a user of PD IEC TS 62836, you can efficiently test the internal electric field in the insulating materials used for high-voltage applications, using the pressure wave propagation (PWP) method. PD IEC TS 62836 helps the user to characterize the internal electric field. The measurement of the internal electric field with the help of PD IEC TS 62836 would give a tool for comparing materials and help to establish thresholds on the internal electric field for high voltage applications to limit breakdown risks as much as possible.
