Abstract :
CORONA is a manifestation of ionization in an insulating medium. Under many conditions corona is detrimental to insulation and consequently should be avoided in electric equipments. Among the various means of detecting corona, such as visual, audible, electrical, etc., the electrical means of detection has been considered most sensitive and has been in use for a number of years.
