  • Abstract
    The dielectric conditions which are unique to converter transformers and smoothing reactors are examined. Both steady state and transient situations are discussed. Two additional tests are recommended for this equipment - a long term dc applied potential test and a polarity reversal test. Formulae are developed to calculate proposed test levels, and guidelines are presented concerning allowable partial discharge levels during the tests.
