Abstract

O. R. Schurig: The problem attacked by Mr. Miner, i. e., that of oil breakdown at large spacings of from 1 in. to 15 in. and more, and when subjected to sustained voltage stresses, is of real importance to engineers because (1) the gaps in high-voltage apparatus are commonly of the order of 1 in. or more and (2) because the voltage stresses for a good part of the time are of a sustained nature. The designers of oil-immersed transformers and circuit breakers must therefore take into account the behavior of oils between widely spaced gaps and under sustained voltage stresses. Mr. Miner's data represent an advance of knowledge in this field.
