Abstract :
CIRCUIT-BREAKER BUSHINGS, or load-ratio control-transformer-contactor bushings, may operate with one end immersed in oil containing various concentrations of small carbon particles. Such particles may be attracted to the bushing insulator surface. The behaviour of carbon particles in oil was investigated for the purpose of finding means of minimizing or avoiding the accumulation of carbon particles on the bushing insulator surface.
