Abstract :
The results of artificial contamination tests on a variety of porcelain and glass suspension insulators are presented together with a discussion of the contamination and fogging procedures. The results are presented in an analytical form that can be related to a theoretical flashover criterion. Semiconductive glazed insulators were tested and compared to normally glazed insulators of the same type.
