Abstract:

Results are presented for a test conducted to evaluate the electrical overload characteristics of wire bundles fabricated from polyvinylidene outer space wire. The two test specimens were subjected to massive overload tests in ambient air. Each test specimen was also subjected to a preliminary dielectric strength test at 1500 Vrms. Author
