  • Abstract
    This book presents a treatment of the performance of high-voltage insulators under adverse weather and pollution conditions. This book is indispensable reading, and an essential reference, for engineers responsible for the design, maintenance, or operation of overhead lines and open-air substations. Researchers, professors, and students will find it to be an excellent introduction to the design and operation of electric system overhead lines.
