Abstract :
This paper presents an overview of the applications of insulations in high voltage apparatus and cables used in distribution and transmission systems at various systems voltage levels of AC 50 Hz 12 kV up to 500 kV in Thailand nowadays. Insulators applied for supporting high voltage conductors include porcelain, glass and composite insulators. The problems of these insulations applications are pointed out. The research works for solving the relevant problems are explained. The investigated results are illustrated and discussed.
