Abstract :
Over the last century as electrical motor testing became more prevalent in industry, little research has been published on computer simulations insulation systems of motor circuits. In this paper, we will present summary results of simulating insulation systems of motors and their associated cabling systems (i.e. the motor circuit). Summary results of the difference in measurements performed on isolated cables and motors as well as when they are connected will be presented. We will also discuss how the standard insulation model may be applied to all types of insulation systems including cables, transformers, etc.
