We applied a high voltage of 60 Hz ac to the sample electrode, and injected a large current of 60 Hz ac into Bi2233/Ag tapes to induce quench. Experimental results revealed that partial discharge (PD) were induced by the transient thermal stress due to quench under the high voltage condition. A criterion of the combined stress for PD inception was experimentally obtained.}, pages = {1660--1663}, title = {Electrical Insulation Characteristics of HTS Cables Under Quench-Induced Thermal Stress Condition}, volume = {17}, year = {2007} }
