Ethylene propylene rubber (EPR) cable has been extensively used for distribution of power. The insulation of cable should withstand electrical, thermal, mechanical, and chemical stresses during its operation. It is imperative to measure the data providing dielectric strength of EPR cable for these stresses. Significant improvements on the quality of insulation have been progressing for better performance of cable under these stresses. This study deals with ac voltage stress imposed on the cable. The electrical breakdown strength of 5kV EPR cable under ac voltage has been measured by constructing a suitable test set in Mississippi State University High Voltage Lab.
