## Abstract

A termination for extra high voltage includes, around a central conductor (1), a deflector cone (2) made of flexible material covered by a polymer insulator having a first internal insulating element (3) and containing a conducting deflector (5), the conductor (1) is connected to an output terminal (6). The maximum diameter (D) of the first insulating element (3) at right angles to the length (L) of the deflector cone (2) included between the conducting deflector (5) and the adjacent end of the output terminal (6) is greater than or equal to double the maximum diameter (d1) of the conducting deflector (5).

## Claims

### Claim 1

A the termination for extra high voltage comprising:
around a central conductor, a deflector cone made of flexible material covered by a polymer insulator having a first internal insulating element and containing a conducting deflector, said conductor being connected to an output terminal,
wherein the maximum diameter (D) of said first insulating element, at right angles to the length (L) of said deflector cone, included between said conducting deflector and the adjacent end of said output terminal, is greater than or equal to double the maximum diameter (d1) of said conducting deflector.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The termination according to claim 1, wherein the maximum diameter (d2) of said deflector cone is less than ⅔ of said maximum diameter (D) of said first insulating element.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The termination according to claim 1, wherein said maximum diameter D of the first insulating element is defined as a function of said length L of the deflector cone by the following function:
D=−f(V)×L+k×V, where v is the impulse voltage for which the termination is designed, f(V) is between 0.25 and 0.4 and k is between 0.5 and 0.7.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The termination according to claim 1, wherein said insulator comprises a second external insulating element covering said first insulating element and having external fins.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The termination according to claim 1, wherein said deflector cone is made of silicone rubber.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The termination according to claim 1, wherein said first insulating element is made of epoxy resin reinforced with mineral additives.

### Claim 7 (depends on 4)

The termination according to claim 4, wherein said second insulating element is made of silicone rubber.
