Abstract
Epoxy composites are extensively used in different applications in high voltage engineering. However, the use of these composites for outdoor insulators has been challenging due to complexities arising out of the conditions of operation of the insulators. Pollution performance of composite insulators is influenced by the nature of the pollution existing, in addition to the combination of stresses acting on the insulators. The use of nano and micro combination of fillers in the epoxy composites is an ideal choice for achieving a proper balance of electrical, thermal and mechanical properties. This paper considers the merits of using combination of micro and nano fillers in an epoxy matrix to demonstrate that such insulation systems would provide better alternatives to the conventional epoxy systems for use as central rod in composite insulation systems for severe contaminated conditions.
