Abstract :
For pt.XIV see ibid., vol.8, no.5, p.34 (1992). The effects of X-ray irradiation during partial discharge measurements are discussed. The partial discharge phenomena in cavities is detailed. A full-scale system capable of testing 138-kV-class post insulators under combined electric stress and X-ray radiation was implemented. Partial discharge testing of insulation systems is described.<>
