TY - CONF A1 - Barnefske, Lena A1 - Wachtendorf, Volker T1 - Self-healing silicone rubber for F-POF partial discharge sensors in HV cable accessories N2 - To avoid a catastrophic failure of insulation in high-voltage (HV) applications, a monitoring of partial discharges (PD) is necessary. Fluorescently labelled polymer optical fibres (F-POF) offer an electrically passive method for PD detection in HV facilities. F-POF could be embedded into HV cable insulation material, which are usually made of silicone rubber. Due to the difficult accessibility of HV cable accessories, a self-healing silicone rubber, based on incorporated capsules, with prolonged service life after PD detection represents an attractive material design for HV electrical insulation.
