Abstract

The severity of the consequences from the impact on high-voltage equipment of numerous factors (Chapter 4) to a decisive extent depends on the type and quality of the dielectric materials and media used in it. It is quite natural that most methods for control the condition of equipment are based on monitoring the initial quality of insulation and changes in its characteristics during operation. The main characteristics of all insulating materials and media—solid, liquid, gaseous and vacuum—are considered. The requirements for electrical insulation are formulated taking into account the modes of operation and external conditions of operation of the equipment.
