Abstract :
DATA covering the electrical characteristics of comparable insulators as received from different sources frequently are conflicting. In an attempt to clarify some aspects of this controversial subject, a study has been made to establish rules whereby such characteristics can be estimated from the dimensions of the insulators with a reasonable degree of certainty. Variations in the arcover potential of dry insulators due to the influence of humidity changes also are considered and approximate correction ratios given.
