Modeling of High Voltage Pollution Discharge to Investigate Hot Stick Flashover
Electric “flashover” or insulation breakdown has occurred on “hot stick” safety tools used on live AC transmission lines at Manitoba Hydro in 1997 and 2002. Investigations showed pollution flashover as the cause, whereby leakage currents cascade into flashover. Prior to reinstating live-line work wi...
