초록

In this paper, we experimented on the deterioration process of power supply cords and analyzed the heating temperature of each part of those cords. We also analyzed the surface states, metallurgical structures surface structures and compositions of the wire melted by over-current. In the results of the analyses, the covering began to be deteriorated from the inside. The heating temperature of extension cord was higher than that of plug body. The dendrite structures appeared at the melted wire. By the SEM and EDS analyses, the dendrite structure showed the growth of copper oxide. We found out the characteristics of PVC insulated flexible cords by over-current from the above experiments and analyses. These results may be useful data in the analyses of deterioration causes of power supply cords.
