Applications of the Silicone Rubber in EHV Electric Appliances

초고압 전력기기에서의 실리콘 고무 응용

In general, the main dielectric materials for EHV electric appliances were epoxy, EPDM and Silicone rubber. The Silicone rubber has been rosed so many among them in EHV appliances in the worldwide, especially in Europe and North America. The reason why it is very stable in the thermal, mechanical and electrical environment. Therefore it is still becoming increasingly widespread in the application of the EHV appliances as a main dielectric material. On this study, investigated about real appliances and tested on basic properties of the Silicone rubber compared to organic dielectric material that is EPDM. At the result, the Silicone rubber is more dominant as main dielectric material for EHV appliances than any other organic polymers.
