Abstract :
The paper investigates effects of Kraft Paper to prevent bridging in pressboard fibre contaminated transformer oil. There are three different configuration of Kraft paper tested. These are 1) covered electrode with loose bond, 2) tight bond and 3) bare electrode with a paper barrier in the middle. There were no bridges formed with loosely bonded tests with DC electric fields. For the other two cases, there was always a complete bridge formed.
