Abstract
The effect of different design solutions on the short- and long-term dielectric strength of cast epoxy insulation has been considered. The electrical strength for 35-kV conductors in the longitudinal and cross sections has been calculated. The correspondence of structures of conductors and couplings to the permissible threshold values of the electric-field intensity has been found. The calculations for graded insulation of 35-kV conductors have been performed. The electric-field grading in insulation systems allows one to decrease the distribution range of electric-field intensity along the total length of multilayer insulation by almost 2.5 times. It has been shown that the optimal number of layers for a 35-kV conductor is six.
