Abstract

Coil specimen was prepared by coating a copper wire with two varnish thin layers: the first was polyamideimide (PAI)/nanosilica (5 wt%) varnish and the second was anti-corona PAI/nanosilica (15 wt%) varnish. Insulation breakdown voltage was investigated under inverter surge condition at <TEX>$20^{\circ}C$</TEX>, <TEX>$70^{\circ}C$</TEX>, <TEX>$100^{\circ}C$</TEX>, <TEX>$150^{\circ}C$</TEX>, <TEX>$200^{\circ}C$</TEX>, <TEX>$250^{\circ}C$</TEX>, respectively. The insulation lifetime of the two layered coil was tens of times longer than that of original PAI coil. And the insulation lifetime decreased with increasing ambient temperature because there was weak binding strength between copper and varnish layer.
