Tests on XLPE cores confirm that at low humidity levels relevant water treeing does not occur. Considering super-absorber characteristics and cable sheath material diffusivity, moisture concentration development can be predicted. Cables contributing only partly to costs of transmission systems, the moderate upcharge is overcompensated by vastly extended service life.
