Particularly in offshore applicati ons\, the use of submarine cables means that HVDC is a preferable alternat ive to AC at much shorter distances than in onshore applications where ove rhead lines can be used. Because the power electronics used to convert AC to DC uses air as an insulating medium\, offshore HVDC converter station p latforms are bulky and thus costly components. Compact gas insulated HVDC switchgear has recently been developed which reduces the volumetric space requirements of the HVDC switchyard by 90%\, realizing up to 10% total cos t savings. Unclarity and a lack of standards regarding the approach toward s qualifying cable sealing end (i.e. cable termination) technology\, has h ampered the uptake of such GIS. CIGRE joint working group B1/B3/D1.79 has characterized the electro-thermal stresses experienced by these components \, and used this as a based to compare existing test recommendations for b oth HVDC GIS as well as HVDC cables\, to develop a recommendation towards testing HVDC GIS cable connection assemblies.
