Electrical degradation of 15 kV polymer insulators under accelerated tracking and erosion test conditions

<p>Polymer insulators are used in the power transmission and distribution industry as a good substitute to the porcelain and glass insulators. These polymer insulators have many advantages compared to porcelain insulators respectively. Significant improvement has been made in the performance o...
