Electromagnetic & its Application to Insulation Breakdown in Pulsed Power Technology

  Mr. Nimesh D. Smart,  Miss. Manisha M. Patel

This paper deals with the electromagnetic law which explains break down and the behavior of insulation while break down. An electrostatic field produced due to a potential on an electrode, stresses the electrical insulation in contact with electric stresses. The performance of a dielectric depends mainly upon the magnitude of electric field intensity it is stressed with .For an optimum design of insulation requirement in different equipment’s the knowledge of electric field intensity in of great importance in high voltage engineering .The dielectric strength of insulating materials and the electric field stresses developed in them when subjected to high voltage systems .In high voltage apparatus the important materials used are conductors and insulators. While the conductors carry the current and insulators prevent the flow of current in undesired path.

Keywords- Insulation, Break down, Electric Field Intensity, Dielectric Strength, High Voltage
