Abstract :
IN ORDER TO obtain a relative evaluation of electrical insulation materials for use in motors, it is necessary that these materials be combined into insulation systems and aged until failure. The aging conditions should be equivalent to those expected in the field except that the temperature may be elevated and the humidification intensified to accelerate the aging.
