  • Abstract
    Creeping flashover characteristics have been investigated for an N 2/SF6 composite insulating system consisting of insertion of an insulating barrier between the needle electrode and the plane electrode. The negative flashover voltage (FOV) for the flat and stepped systems in N2 (D=0%) is as high as that of SF6 (D=0%) by the effective field relaxation from the accumulated charges. Remarkable reduction of FOV induced by few percentages SF6 addition should originate from the barrier interaction such as ineffective charge accumulation and photon-related emission. However, for the grooved system, the confinement effect should be effective, resulting in lower FOV in N2
