| Résumé : | The first polymer insulator for AC transmission lines was developed in the late 1950s. This insulator consisted of a flexibilized epoxy resin weathershed cast onto a fiberglass rod, and field trials on a 138-kV line took place in 1959. Insulators failed almost immediately on energization due to severe tracking and erosion of the bisphenol-A epoxy material, which was later, through inclined-plane tests, shown to be inherently unsuitable for use in outdoor insulation [1]. This article describes a study of the DC dry-band arcing mechanism as a foundation for the development of a standard DC inclined-plane test and its employment in the evaluation of silicone-rubber housing composites for outdoor DC insulation. |
