In order to investigate transient space charge phenomena, it is essential that the space charge profile be observed at a high repetition rate. We have developed a new space charge measurement system using the pulsed electroacoustic (PEA) method, which can measure the space charge profiles every 10 /spl mu/s. It employs the most recent digitising oscilloscope model and a semiconductor switch. The effect of prestressing on impulse breakdown voltage of a low-density polyethylene sheet was investigated by using the new system. Experimental results suggest that positive charge injection was dominant immediately before the breakdown, and charge injection during the prestressing causes distortion of the electric field near the electrode, and enhances the subsequent charge injection due to the impulse voltage.
