Effects of Overload on Thermal Decomposition Kinetics of Cross-Linked Polyethylene Copper Wires

During an overload fault in an energized wire, the hot metal core modifies the structure of the insulation material. Therefore, understanding the thermal decomposition kinetics of the insulation materials of the overloaded wire is essential for fire prevention and control. This study investigates th...
