The composite laminates were manufactured by pressing prepregs and exhibited low porosity. Testing was performed in a Phenix 6CC100-5/D149 under alternating voltage according to ASTM D149-20. Electrodes and specimen were submerged in transformer oil to prevent surface flashover. Flat, parallel electrodes covering the entire specimens were used to apply a continuously increasing potential difference, corresponding to an electric field increase of 0.25 (kV/mm)/s. Samples with varying fiber angles relative to the applied electric field (0°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 90°), electrode gaps (2 mm, 4 mm, 8 mm, 16 mm), and cross-sectional areas (30 mm², 50 mm², 70 mm²) were tested. Specimens for which a clearly carbonized breakdown path in the material could not be visually identified after the first test were subjected to a second test.
