According to the increasing power demand for the future construction of many underground cables will be required. However, construction of new ducts for power cables will be more difficult. Therefore, research work for realizing the high temperature superconducting(HTS) cable has advanced, where the development of electrical insulating system at cryogenic temperature is one of the major researches. For an electrical insulation design of HTS cable, it is important to understand not only breakdown but also partial discharge and dielectric loss($tan{\delta}$) in liquid nitrogen/paper composite insulation system. In this paper, we investigated breakdown characteristics in liquid nitrogen/paper composite insulation system for the application to HTS cable. And, we studied the breakdown characteristics of the multi-layer and butt gap of the insulation papers in liquid nitrogen. Also, we measured dielectric loss($tan{\delta}$) of the mini-model Cable made of TERLAM IPP.
