A Study on the Effects of Insulating Material Barrier on the Surface Creepage over Discharge

연면방전의 특성과 절연체의 영향 및 그 응용

In the design of electrical equipment insulation, it is customary to place pressboard and other insulating material at right angle to the electrical discharge path, which is based on the insulation tests performed on equipment under various conditions such as types of insulation, applied voltage and other unique situations. Since electrical equipment manufacturing started only recently, there is a scarcity of available data on insulation problems, which make it difficult for the design engineers. The author untook this study to provide such analytical design data for various conditions based on the experiment conducted on the equipment being manufactured, thus reducing possible errors in the process.
