Abstract
Recently, treeing breakdown has been identified as an important factor controlling the long time breakdown of polymer insulation systems. However, due to its complicated nature, the mechanisms involved are not yet fully understood. Using experimental results from other investigators, together with our own, this paper reviews the mechanism of voltage-induced treeing breakdown by dividing it into two stages: tree inception and tree extension.Keywords
