Abstract:Leakage current is a very important parameter in the performance evaluation and monitoring of outdoor insulators. This paper presents experimental results of leakage current under different contaminated conditions of silicone rubber insulators. HTV silicone rubber sheets were utilized for tests and pollution was coated artificially in laboratory. The effect of temperature, humidity and pollution severity on leakage current of silicone rubber insulators were investigated. It was observed that leakage current ma… Show more
