Abstract :
SERVICE EXPERIENCE with electric apparatus has indicated that in many cases the presence of “contaminants” has contributed to the failure of electrical insulation. In the category of contaminants are included moisture, salt, oil, carbonaceous materials, and dust. Such contaminants may adversely affect both the physical and electrical properties of electrical insulation.
