The electrothermal aging process of cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation has been an essential factor for the reliability high-voltage (HV) cables, but underlying mechanism remains a puzzle. In this paper, dielectric properties in terahertz domain sliced XLPE samples from HVDC cable are investigated at duration up to 1500 h. It is found that with increase time, real part and imaginary complex permittivity decrease increase, respectively. To explain phenomenon, chemical changes...
