Abstract
This paper includes the results of an investigation of high-voltage pulse effects on insulators of a 10-kV power line. Experiments have been performed by means of equipment that simulates the simultaneous effect of a pulse disturbance and a power line operating voltage. Critical levels of insulator flashover have been determined. These levels are dependent on the pulse disturbance duration, and a number of other effects. The electric characteristics of insulators degrade when high-voltage pulses are injected on an insulator with power ON. As a result, some insulators have been destroyed. The possible reason of destruction is the presence of latent defects.
