Abstract

The problem of preventing corona glowing discharges at the junction of slot and end-winding semiconductive coatings is investigated. Allowable electrical stress and current density are determined and used to calculate the two-step stress-grading coating. The proposed construction of end-winding coatings was used to produce 20-kV turbogenerators and checked by long-term sample testing.
